awesome work Alisa. i seriously doubt your pics were scary, that’s just silly. that circuit involves some heavy weights, impressive!
if you have one, did you mention what your goal weight was?
i finally had a break through on the scale this week myself. i’m hopeful tomorrow will be even better. (146.6 today)
Congrats on your breakthrough.
I’m gunning for 134 – so a total of 10 pounds from where I started.
I liked that circuit. (My workout buddy, not so much; I was hogging the rack a bit.)
