Good Luck, I would wait for one of their specials.....The fee could be as high as 200.00 I waited for a special and had to bring in a bag of food and that was it....Pay 30.00 a month!

I'm thinking of joining Curves, my wedding is not for another two years, but it might take some time to get motivated ;)

I'm glad to see some positive feedback on Curves, makes me want to call them up asap.

What's the normal membership fee? I'm in the Toronto area, I don't know if varies by location.

I ahve been going for a week now, and I also love it. I swaet so hard when I am there and really push myself. I weighed myself yesterday and am down 5 pounds, and am sure i have lost a few inches becuase clothes are fitting better...

I really suggest it for every woman, especially if normal gyms intimidate you!

BWAHAHAAA!! That's what I call it too! My mom looks at me funny when I say that!

My mom uses Curves, and it has done wonders for her! She goes three times a week, and I know she stayed the same weight for a while, but she was losing inches, so it was definitely working for her! She's still going and looking great :)

So we had our first workout last night (although we only went around once because it took an hour to show us the machines and then ahve us do a circuit ourselves) and we loved it...'

I learnt one thing...I am REALLY out of shape! :w00t:haha I was red and sweaty after one round and could bearly do one machine (the arm one where you pull it in and push it out...like you are doing 'i must, i must, i must increase my bust')

But we loved it and felt good after. This is definatley something I could do alot...I just wish I could could go tonight...but the first 3 had to be scheduled!:hehe:

I just joined Curves about a few weeks ago, since then I have lost 2.25 inches all over my body, including my belly! YAY! And about 1.5 pounds of body fat. I try to go at least 5 times a week! I love Curves!

Thanks girls...my girlfriend and I went last night, and signed up for the 30 days for 30 dollars deal.

We have to go a minimum of 3 times a week...our first night is tonight and we're excited!!!

We liked that lack of mirrors, the ages of people, and the atmosphere!

I have been a member and was pleased with the results. The only catch is you have to *remember* to go for it to work, LOL

I have a membership at Curves. It is pretty good if you go 3-4 times a week.....I also run on the days that I don't go....

Has anyone here ever been to Curves? I think there was a previous post, but we all know what happened to that!:hehe:

My best friend and I are thinking of joining...right now there is a special where you get 30 days for 30 dollars, and then that $30 becomes your 'initiation fee' if you choose to sign up..

Neither of us are very physical and are both out of shape. I am about 50 lbs over what I should be, and my friend is about 100lbs overweight...

I have heard it will be good for us, because it's not vigorous, and because we won't be as conscious/embarrassed as we would be at a normal gym...
