“I lost 2 lbs. this week! And I forgot I liked carrots!”

Hi, I’m Cassandra Lejoly, from Green Valley, Arizona.

I lost two pounds this week!

Curves Complete has changed the way I look at food. Since starting this diet, I’ve realized there are certain foods that I actually enjoy, but would never have eaten to begin with.

For example, I never thought about eating carrots when I’m hungry, but I actually love them; lots of people like them, too. My best friends started buying carrots, for snacks, just because they liked them as well.

I eat cereal every morning for breakfast; I always have. I thought that would be a challenge on Curves Complete, because I didn’t know if I could keep eating cereal. But luckily I can.

I’ve discovered many low carbs and calories Kashi cereal. Not only are they good, but they are also good for you.

I also used to drink only whole milk, but I reduced it slowly to 2%, then 1%. The milk I now drink, which is 1%, is actually good, and I enjoy it. I will probably keep that milk even after the diet, as well as the new cereals I discovered.

Now, when I look at foods high in sugars or fat, I usually think of the calories in those foods and what they would do to my body first.

It is true that sometimes I have unhealthy cravings, something that after this Curves Complete, I might eat once in a while, but I have learned that I can pass by them and not break down completely. This helped my self-control immensely.

“I’m getting the support and motivation I need to succeed!”

Hi, I’m Kim Alt, from Green Valley, Arizona.

Being on Curves Complete is giving me more incentive to work out, even when I want to go home after work.

I get support from my circuit coaches and it is easier to work out four times a week.

“Sweet victory: I said no to cookies!”

I’m Jane Rogalla, from Green Valley, Arizona.

I have always been addicted to sweets.  This week I was confronted with a tray full of cookies.  Normally it would not matter what kind of cookie, I would just take a handful.

I actually walked past thinking not about how good the cookie would taste but how many steps I would have to do to get back to zero.

It was a victory for me.
