Curves Challenge is in the Home Stretch

The Biggest Loser participants are in their final weeks of the 10 week challenge at in Sayville. The women participating in the contest have been exercising regularly and changing their eating habits to get healthy and lose weight. Last week the women lost a total of 18 pounds.

With two weeks left in the contest, the ladies are giving a final push to be the Biggest Loser at Curves.

Kathy Seff was not able to work out as much as she would have like.  The past few weeks she was helping her sister who just had a baby and could not get three workouts into her overloaded schedule. 

Now she is back on track, working out and feeling great. Seff has lost a total of 9 pounds and went down two pant sizes. She attributes some of her weight loss to the Curves Protein Shake she drinks every morning.  Chocolate is her favorite flavor and she loves that it fills her up. 

About all the upcoming feasting holidays, Seff plans on making healthy choices. "I am not ruining my hard work for nothing," she said.

Jackie Monaco made a traditional Thanksgiving feast for her family, including using butter and does want to limit herself.  She said, "I only make this food once a year, so my plans are to eat dinner once, have no leftovers and get right back on track the next day."

Monaco's game plan has been working for her –  she has lost a total of 22 ½ pounds during the eight weeks of the Biggest Loser contest. She has been eating healthy, but enjoying a treat every so often – like eating Thanksgiving dinner.  Working out regularly and starting the Zumba classes at Curves has also helped her lose the weight.

Stay tuned to Patch to see the results of this .
