Okay, maybe you guys can’t relate, but I know the women can. I have been working on losing about 10 pounds that I gained earlier this year. Instead of buying new clothes, I thought it would be better to lose the weight to get into the clothes in my packed closet. I have beautiful clothes that I currently can’t wear. I have been frustrated with the weight loss because it’s not dropping off like it used to or the way I think it should.

I tried something different this time. I went to do a body wrap. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. After being mummified to the point where I could barely breathe, I had to walk (could hardly move) to another room with exercise equipment! I didn’t realize that I would be covered in wet, dripping bandages, covered with plastic bags at my hands and feet (you drip) and covered with a poncho and told to get on the “gazelle” machine for an hour. An hour? I had to attempt to move my legs and arms back and forth for an hour? How? I was lucky to be walking. After the hour, I had lost just over 11 inches. They promise 10-30 inches. Now, I can fit into my smaller jeans that I haven’t worn in more than six months. And…they don’t pinch at the waist. I lost most of my inches around my torso, butt and thighs. It’s a miracle.

It’s a great day when you can get into those skinny jeans!

For anyone who is interested:  the body wraps are from Simply Beautiful.

I’m ready to write on this blog again. I realized this morning that I didn’t think I had anything to say really. But as it turns out, I have plenty to write about. I keep struggling with this.
