After struggling with my weight for ... oh, let's see, my whole life, I finally came into curves. I got a much more realistic assessment of how much progress I should expect and how much work I should put in when I talked to a personal trainer than I ever got by looking up diet fad after diet fad on the internet. It was such a good decision. I realized that a lot of the reason I was having so much trouble losing weight was just that I had no clue what I was doing, and kept getting discouraged because I thought I was supposed to have massive progress really fast.
I'm taking things slow now, and finally having some progress. I am really glad I have learned how to be patient!

Curves is a large weight loss outfit serving customers throughout the country (maybe the whole world, I'm not sure). I thought I could lose weight on my own for a long time, but I only got more and more discouraged. I tried a billion different fad diets, but they just made me gain weight. It's an incredibly frustrating feeling that you can't get anywhere and can't put a dent in that fat--I'm sure all you ladies know.
I was initially hesitant to sign up for Curves because of the cost, but I'm glad it's a hurdle I was able to overcome. The cost of trying to lose weight on my own was just as high--but it was a psychological cost. Curves gave me a personal trainer who helped me to come up with a dieting and exercise plan which would fit into my lifestyle and which wouldn't be too difficult to adjust to, and I finally learned that real weight loss is a long term, gradual process. Curves gets 5/5 stars for clearing up my confusion, helping me get back some self esteem, and for getting me closer to my weight loss goals.

I'd been trying to lose weight for three years. I used to weigh 170 pounds. The last time I checked the scale I was finally down to 150! That's a huge milestone, so it seemed like time to leave a nice review for Curves.
Curves is great for me because the hardest thing about weight loss to me was the feeling of isolation I had. I hated going out to eat with friends and not feeling comfortable ordering less or ordering something healthy. I didn't like not having the discipline to work out--and not really knowing what I was doing when I tried.
At Curves I found a community of like-minded people trying to lose weight, and mentors who had already done it! I was able to get personal one-on-one aerobic training and help with my diet plan. I made friends with ladies who shared my weight loss goals and who I can go out with without feeling any pressure to order things I know that I shouldn't. That's made all the difference in the world for me--not feeling so alone.
