I am Inspired!

Since March 30th I have lost 9 pounds and 8 inches!!! Where does it go??? I belong to Curves in Sayville - next to Stop and Shop on Main Street. A new owner took over the gym about six months ago and gave it breath of fresh air.

It has been three years since I joined Curves in Sayville and I never really lost any real weight, but my body felt good doing the exercises. The main reason I joined is because they have a play area for the kids, that I do not have to pay extra for. There is a TV with a DVD player, toys, table, chairs and markers. There is no one but you watching your kids. While working out you can see your kids the whole time and it is very safe. It is a kid friendly place.

Sharon Boyle is the new owner and she is doing a lot of new fun things. The one thing that I think helped me lose the weight is The Curves Fitness & Weight Management Plan that I started in March. The book cost $10 and Sharon gave the classes after hours for free. The plan is very easy to follow and there are three phases. You just open the book to what phase you are on, look for what meal you need and there are tons of options.

I always thought I was eating right, but this book help me tweak it and I lost! You actually eat a lot to get your metabolism going. For breakfast today I had two eggs with mushroom, spinach and low fat cheese and a piece of whole grain toast. Yum! I do give into temptation here and there. I had two small brownies for dessert on Saturday. You have to have a little fun or you'll go nuts. Call Curves at 631-218-2916
