Nutrition and Weight Management by Curves

Tuesday, January 5th, 2021

Over the past 30 years, there has been a lot of conflicting information about what we should and shouldn’t be eating for weight loss and optimum health. In that same time frame, obesity rates have skyrocketed. Most fad diets have focused on restricting or eliminating certain food groups such as fats or carbohydrates.

With most weight loss plans, a majority of the weight loss is in the form of water weight and muscle mass. Muscle is the most metabolically active tissue in the body, meaning the more muscle you have the more calories you are burning. Losing muscle means you are burning fewer calories and slowing your metabolism down. A slower metabolism will make losing weight difficult and sustaining weight loss nearly impossible.

For the past 20 years, Dr. Kreider at Texas A&M University has been studying the Curves Nutrition Program. His research found that healthy eating, the right combination of protein, carbohydrates and fats, combined with a complete exercise program such as Curves, protects muscle mass and ensures that up to 95% of the weight loss is in the form of fat.

The Curves Nutrition Program is a three phase approach to weight loss that will help build healthy eating and exercise habits for life. Throughout this, you will also learn about the importance each macronutrient plays on your health, the importance of vitamins and minerals as well as reading food labels.

This program is self-paced and can be done from the comfort of your own home. Then, once a week you will meet with your Curves Coach at your local club to review what you have learned and help answer any questions you have. Your coach will become a trusted, valuable partner in helping you develop healthy habits.
