NicTheRugger Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 Oh my goodness look at you kicking butt all over this challenge! I love the refocusing from getting the dress done to finishing old projects. I also have a ton of half-finished projects that I've been putting off for ages, and I'm going to take inspiration from you to try and get some of those done! You look great, you sound like you're happy, and I'm so happy for you!

kcaleece Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 Oh, I'm so jealous of the dress plans! I haven't sewn clothing in years but I keep telling myself I'm going to, hahaha. Maybe I'll have to take a page out of your book and just dive into something already. Lord knows I have enough random bolts of fabric sitting around the house... Quote Mom. Teacher.

JessFit Posted April 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 I'm feeling good knowing that this challenge is almost over and I've been sticking to it. I miscalculated some things because I didn't take in to account my wisdom teeth having to come out. I'm told that I was super doped up after surgery and fighting with the nurse about how soon I could lift... I don't remember that, but it sounds about right. It was nice enough out on Tuesday that I got to do conditioning in my garage! I love that. The garage in the new condo is a bit bigger so hopefully I'll be able to put some conditioning equipment in the back of that. I'm TOTALLY decorating with pictures of vintage strong women! Abbye Stockton, Vulcana, Athelda, ect. I'll probably also hang my powerlifting medals in there. With approximately 4 days left in the challenge I'm hoping to get in 2 more lifts, at least 1 more yoga session, and finish the quilt that I've been working on as part of my PHDs. Photo of quilt (and helper) attached. This was when I was making the quilt sandwich, I've since started the actual quilting and I think it is totally viable to have it done by Sunday. Thank you all for your feedback and encouragement! I've really enjoyed challenging with you.

JessFit Posted April 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 Next challenge is up! This challenge was incredible, even if it didn't go according to plan. I'm feeling fantastic at the end of it and I'm excited and motivated for the next one. Didn't quite finish the quilt, but all I've got left is the binding.
