I was coming off a recovery period from a serious surgery that left me weak and deconditioned. I decided to join a gym and lose some weight and get stronger. My health plan offers free memberships in selected gyms and I chose Curves for Women because there are no mirrors, the coach was friendly, and the other people looked like me. I could proceed at my own pace and all the machines are easy to learn. I also took a class offered by my health plan called "Eat Right, Move Right" and a year later, I have lost 23 lbs. and feel better than I have in years. I am also off two medications and had my best bone scan ever! It takes time and energy to get out there, and also to plan healthy meals, but I have caregiver responsibilities and if I don't take care of myself, I cannot be there for those who depend on me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
