I want to thank ALL of you for your well wishes, congratulations, concerns, and of course your donations for this amazing event! Thanks to so many of you who contributed to the massive $196,000 Total for HopeKids! Yesterday was nothing short of magical. So inspirational and I am go thankful to have taken part in this! Yesterday started off great, squatting a new 148 lb. Weight class world record squat of 672 Pounds. With each squat attempt, my legs kept getting more swollen in the suit, and after a long effort, we ended up having to cut the suit off of me. I got something to eat and immediately got one of the worst stomach aches imaginable. I could barely stand up straight, much less bench anything heavy. This lasted a few hours and then completely went away. The only thing we can think now is that I didnt wait long enough for all the blood to get out of my legs (they were very full!) and just didnt have much in my stomach to digest the food? Well never know. Very disappointing BUT grateful for the squat and even more grateful to have been a part of such a powerful movement like Relentless. There arent enough words to describe what happened yesterday. Thank you Scott and Rachel Nutter for your vision in this, you are truly changing the world! Thank you to my husband Shane for putting up with me being grumpy and dieting, and for continually being right by my side knowing exactly what I need for a meet. Truly the best in the biz. I love you! To Shannon AH (Dale Alleshouse) for putting the team before himself, truly one of the most unselfish persons I know. He defines Team Sweatt Shop. Thank you Dale for everything youve done for me!! To Gracie V for coming all the way to the meet and being right there for anything we needed! Such a huge surprise and meant SO much to me and the other #CCs! ♡ To my training partners and entire Sweatt Shop Team, THANK YOU for supporting me and keeping me motivated every single day. Im constantly reminded how lucky we all are to have each other. And I promise to never take you all for granted! To Jennifer Lanzillotta for making sure I had the smoothest and safest weight cut Ive ever had, thank you!! To every single one of you who sent good luck and congratulatory wishes, and just generally supported me through this entire process... Thank you!! It has meant more to me than youll ever know! Last but not least... my sponsors! I have to give a huge shout out to John Inzer at Inzer Advance Designs! When my bodyweight kept dropping and my gear wasnt fitting, he made sure I quickly had anything I needed! I am so thankful to be supported by the worlds greatest Powerlifting equipment company! To Westside Barbell, Rogue Fitness, AtLarge Nutrition, and Swollen Knuckles Clothing, THANK YOU so much for your continued support in my efforts!! I would NOT be able to balance all the things in my life and still be able to pursue these dreams if it werent for you! Im going to be right back in the gym this week, working on the next one! Thank you all for the inspiration to continue on! #neverquit #conjugatestrong
