Hi Everyone,
I just joined Curves.. I was getting ready for work last week and put on a short sleeve sweater. Not to bad I thought, I weigh 135 lbs and am 5'7".
When I went to brush my hair I lifted my arms and I have this "flappy" thing going on [Eek!] When did this happen! Ok..so I turn and look at my butt! It's now on my thighs! I think I have to walk on my hands to get everything to fall back into place!
Do any of you belong to Curves? Is there help out there? I'm not doing this old thing very gracefully!

Honey, I weigh 135 in one leg...and I'm 5'3" sooooo...anyway, there are several women on here who belong to curves and swear by it, so I think you'll have company. But ANY kind of exercise is a good thing. If for no other reason than to stimulate your mind, body, and soul. I would think new friendships could/would be formed by joining something like this too...that cannot be a bad thing! Good luck...I just walk every day.

Lin, I was a Curvesaholic for over a year. Immediately after dropping my son off at high school, I would hit the gym faithfully. Then he got his license, I got out of my routine and never went again.

I gained muscle for sure. My upper body never felt so strong. It was a great workout. Plus the women wer the best. Everyone was super friendly and very funny, all very down to earth.

You're going to love it.

I am back to walking with a friend.

My backyard overlooks the park and it has a great walking track but I think I'll stick to Curves because I have to pay for it, the walking track is free. I need incentive and wasting hard earned money is incentive..
JJ..just visited your Homepage. It's wonderful!
How have I managed to exsist without this forum. Someone please unplug my puter!!

Lin656, so do you like Curves? At least there you dont have to look at the size 3 girls in their little leotards prancing around asking everyone, "do I look fat to you?" I use to say "oh no," hesitate, and then say "at least not from the front"....You should have seen their expressions change. Smile---GONE! [Frown]
Loved it! [Wink] [Big Grin] [Cool]

Well..it must be working because muscles I didn't know I have hurt and I just started yesterday.. When I woke this morning and sat at the counter to have my coffee my butt hurt! Talk about a pain in the you know what [Wink] I'm skipping tomorrow and it's only my second time to go but I have plans with the kids. I've promised myself I'll go 3 days a week after this.
Thanks and take good care [Smile]
