I went to Curves to see if it would be something I'd like...by the measuring machine they had (just placed on finger tips), insurance companies would have considered me obese since I was more fat than muscle. While trying out one of the machines, my blue JEANS wripped in the butt. Needless to say, I was very embarassed, left and never went back.
You look around at all of the movies, the magazines and they have these perfect women as models. What women wouldn't want to look like them? Maybe I just see it different. I'm not as small as I use to be and frankly, don't want to be that thin again. I'm a size 6 now and am happy. Not scary thin but thin enough.
