Well...
I just signed up w/Curves, started this morning, so I don't have any experience with it yet. I bought his book, based on your post. I like the idea of a package deal, exercise and eating plan. I've read most of it and am intrigued by his plan to raise your set-point, of amount of food you can eat without gaining. I'd never heard it explained the way he did. Don't know if he's full of baloney or not. BUT...because of the 'package deal' I have decided to give it a try. I'm following (starting today) his 20 carb intro plan. (As of right now, I will say for 2 weeks, I may change that to 1 wk, after I do some more reading and research.)
I didn't feel like the workout was very difficult at all, but my heart rate was at 70%. I think after I get the machine technique down pat, I can put some more effort into it. How are you doing?
If you would like to try it with me, we can start a group journal or move this to our personal journals. Anyone else want to join in? Surely there are more 'Curve ladies' out there!
His eating plan is very similar to others, the difference being what you do when you normally would go on 'maintenance' for the the other LC plans. He explains his theory well, and as I said, I'm intrigued enough to give it a fair shot. I haven't lost in quite a while (actually, after a weekend away, I gained 4 lbs-s/b mostly water) so I'm looking to tweak again.
You game? Let me know.
Amy
