I am 76 year old woman who has had numerous health problems for many years. I was encouraged by my doctor to join Curves and in 10 months, I have lost 17 pounds and 28 inches! I feel better, am stronger and have more energy than I have in years.

I am 62 years young. Curves is a workout facility that offers cardio and strength training and is a great "30 minute workout just for women". I have met many friends at Curves. We exercise (I call it "rock and roll"), encourage each other and have our girlfriend time.

February 11, 2003 is the day that Irene Wanner changed her life. She was overweight at 230 pounds, had bad knees and was using a cane for support. Her doctor told her that she would have to lose some weight and get her blood pressure down before she could perform knee surgery. Her doctor gave her the name of a local diet clinic, but the thought of getting on yet another diet did not appeal to Irene. Then she remembered a friend telling her about Curves. She joined immediately! After three months she was losing weight and her knees began to feel a lot better. She continued to lose weight after she joined the Six Week Solution Class. It has been four years since Irene never did have to have that knee surgery. In fact, she hung up her cane for good!
