After walking out on an office Christmas dinner because, at 366 pounds, she couldn’t fit behind the table, a determined Debbie Bishop-Lane walked into her local Curves, which she had joined a month before. A year later, she was 179 pounds lighter. And as she dressed for that year’s Christmas party, her youngest daughter put her arms around her mom, told her how much she loved her, and how beautiful she was. “The overwhelming feeling of achievement was astonishing,” Debbie says. “I felt like Cinderella must have felt at her ball.”

When Patti Collins’ doctor told her 16 months ago that her weight had triggered diabetes, she joined Curves and attended the Permanent Results Without Permanent Dieting weight-loss class. Besides stopping the diabetes in its tracks, “I found out who I was at Curves,” says the now-svelte Texan. “I found out that I’m strong, self-controlled, not afraid to try new things, and not afraid to stand up for what I believe in. I also lost 102 pounds,” she chuckles. “But that was just and added benefit.”
