The first set of step-ins is done-- just an ounce or two shy of the 5-pound ankle weights I've been waving around in the air at PT. They were black and pink to start, got blacker with the tape job, and I need to add the decorative laces and celebration charms. As soon as I try these out, I will have heavier ones to make for leg extensions with the next cheap set of booties at Sallie Ann's. We got about 12 bricks of various weights, for about 7 bucks total.

YAY!

The comparable retail item only goes up to 1-1/2 pounds each leg, and is 20-80 bucks. We're hardcore here!
