the fitness franchise designed exclusively for women, has developed Curves Complete, a simple, easy-to-follow weight-loss plan that combines the three keys to taking off weight and keeping it off: diet, exercise and motivation. Curves is the only place you can get all three, and Curves of Gaithersburg & Olney want you to try it FREE for one week. "For many women, managing the simple logistics of sticking to a diet and exercise plan is what defeats them," says Katy Bauer, Gaithersburg-East & Olney Curves Owner/Manager. "Meal planning and preparation, shopping, designing an effective and age-appropriate exercise plan, coping with everyday emotional highs and lows - it can be overwhelming. Sometimes it seems easier to stick with the status quo. That’s why our new Curves Complete program provides a foolproof plan for dealing with all of these diet challenges - and helps keep women on track for success." The Curves Complete program incorporates all three key components of a successful weight management plan and is designed to help dieters lose up to 20 pounds and 20 inches in just 90 days. Women are seeing real results and sharing their success stories with others at www.facebook.com/curves.
