This is what weight lifting has done for me!!! In the first pic I weighed 203 pounds and my friends begged me to return this dress. I have never worn it out of the house before today.... The second pic is from this morning, I still weigh 203 pounds (between the first and second pic I gained and lost 20!)... but the dress fits totally different.

I have been doing a bastardized NROLFW + SL5x5 and two 30-minute cardio sessions a week since the beginning of February. If you want more information, google these fantastic programs and just get started!
