I have been going to Curves and now they have a weight lose program. Should I try it? Any help would be great! Thanks, Jen

Just let them know, I am sure they would be happy to share that info! It is safe to diet, as long as you maintain certain things. What, I am not exactly sure, as I have not dieted in years. Lost about 20 pounds when my dd came home, but have gained it back. Hoping to lose more when the next baby comes home, too. Good Luck! DawnL wife to Jim, mommy to Daphne and Jeran and Jalen

His Maintenance Phase is recommended for pregnant and lactating women, which would be around 60 grams of carbs per day. Thanks, Cathy
