Gym Question -- Curves to 24 hr Fitness or Calif Family Fitness???

[Guest guest]

I've decided that, after loosing around 100 pounds and 19 months of

doing workouts at Curves (a gym for women) I now need more. Curves

has really helped me loose lots of weight both before and after my

WLS surgery; that cannot be denied; but I need more than they can

give me now.

I'd like some opinions about which of these fitness centers seem to

be better. I'm only considering 24 Hour Fitness and California

Family Fitness centers because they are the closest to my home.

I've visited both centers ONCE now, and they are both equally

appealing. Although CFF costs more, they have internet access, and

that's really appealing to me. However, when I tried it out this

evening, I couldn't access Yahoo or very much else. I do like the

schedule a little better at 24 hr, though.

Both offer a few sessions with a personal trainer to help get me

started on an appropriate routine to help me tone and strenthen some

muscles (my cardiologist told me to strengthen my tummy muscles).

Can anyone offer opinions about either club?

Thanks,
