Almost a year ago I joined Curves with my friend Katie and was really committed to working out. I started off strong having a buddy to work out with then Katie moved across town and didn't go anymore. Then Lucas moved his bedtime from 6:30 to 8:00 and it got harder and harder to go by myself because I didn't want to miss out on family time. The last few months I have been VERY slack about going to Curves and honestly I can't remember the last time I did go, which I know was a waste of money. I did however lose 13 lbs while I was there and managed to keep it off.
Before the weather got too hot I was meeting with a few of my friends and walking in the mornings. It was great because I could bring Lucas and get a nice workout at the same time. Now that it is 500 degrees we have stopped walking together but several of the girls from our walking group go to the YMCA. A few months ago I went and check out the Y and tried a water aerobics class while Lucas was in their free child watch. It was AWESOME but I couldn't join right away because I still had the contract with Curves.
Well since this is my last month of Curves I went and signed up for the YMCA today. I love that it is open 7 days a week and that they have free childcare. Also 85% of the moms in our playgroup go to the YMCA so I know I can always find a workout buddy. Also one of the best things about the Y is that they have scholarship programs and I was able to get a $15 a month membership!!! Now to get back to reaching my workout goals.
