Our curves occasionally offers free trial weeks etc but I found the same problems as you -the hours were awful. They close at 5 pm in my town. I get off work at 6. I decided I didn't need curves and tried videos too -I hear you on Richard simmons. My video stars Mary Hart from entertainment tonight and 3 other people who look like barbies with side-ponytails and pink legwarmers -but in the end it gets the job done. Maybe you could rent a workout video or two from a DVD store or find some cheap locally or online to invest in that are at a level you feel comfortable with. Sometimes even libraries have DVDs like these.

Don't get discouraged, but mostly do what you can and don't give up. You dont have to do curves but you know you have to do something. I have spent the last 2 years saying I dont have time to go to the gym, and no I make a priority out of exercisine -walking videos, and maybe someday I'll try a gym.
