I joined curves last week. I am very obese and was able to do the entire
course. I love it. The owners are great and very encouraging. It was
$45 to join and round $50 a month. Yes expensive, but I felt this was the only gym I could handle for the moment. I have only been walking but the weight loss slowed down until I joined last week and I am back up to over 4 lbs this week. I live in Canada (Quebec). No matter what you decide to do just keep moving.
