Clinging to crazy things

You know "those girls" who look at Pinterest for DIY projects, google recipes for healthier choices even though they have recipe books at home, look to women's fashion for daily outfit ideas, and she wants all the "in" topics, trends, things, but only she wants them for cheap or um free if possible?!? Yeah I'm that type of girl. So when I heard of these body wraps salons do, or that people who have these wrap parties, I want one. Who doesn't? Well, I do but I don't. They are like $150 and that's just too deep for my wallet to actually try out. 

So as I said before I'm "that girl" so I took this whole wrap thing to Pinterest and of course they have a DIY wrap. And of course I searched my cabinets to make sure I had cling wrap. When I did I was excited to get my wrap on. 

Sidenote: this chick my brother used to date in college use to cling wrap her self all the time so I've remembered that since I was about 6 and wanted to figure out why she wrapped herself, well now I know! 

I wrapped my biggest biggest problem area (hint: it starts with love and ends with handles and filled with belly) when I went to sleep each night. It's weird that I can see a difference and I think I'll continue doing it (at least during the week nights, it's too hard to remember during the weekends for me apparently) 

Basically I just used bodycream which I used a crap ton, rubbed it in, but not all the way in, I left a caked on layer. Then I wrapped my belly and waist all the way around a bajillion times tightly with cling wrap, then I put on my super sexy (not so much) spanx top and went to bed. I'm not entirely sure how it works, I'm sure something to do with the moisturizer wrapped in place helps make the skin appear tighter and maybe the cling wrap makes me sweat a little?!? I really don't know but I kind of think I'm on to something here. So if you have a problem area, try 'er out and see for yourself.

What do you think?

Back to tracking...

Here's what I ate/logged for my first week of getting back on track with my diet.
