Wrap Time

My wraps came in! Yay! I have been waiting for a time when I could get some pictures of the process for you guys, and my wonderful sister, Hillary, volunteered to take all my pictures and wrap with me! We had so much fun! The wraps are very easy to apply and use, and I had some great results. My sister's were even more drastic but I will let the pictures tell the story!

First, I showered and exfoliated really well. I did not apply any lotion afterwards. Then I put on some makeup because you guys do not want to see no makeup and wet hair Whitney. It isn't pretty!

Second step, gather your supplies! Your Ultimate Body Applicator, witch hazel, a measuring tape, and saran wrap or something to secure the wrap in place!

Then I soaked a paper towel witch hazel, and rubbed my stomach and anywhere the wrap would be touching numerous times. Witch hazel helps open up your pores, and remove impurities so the lotion on the wrap can be absorbed more efficiently.

The next step is to measure, and take your before picture. Scary, I know, but it is the best way to measure your progress! It is important to measure because sometimes the results may not be as visible in photographs, so the measurements help you know you are making progress. Remember the results are progressive after 72 hours! I lost an inch by the next morning, and I haven't used my second wrap yet!

The before picture!

Now for the fun part! Let's try this Crazy Wrap Thing! Guys,  I was so excited that I dorked out and forgot to get a good before picture of my sister. We had both our babies, and we were in a hurry before our husbands got back. I will share some of her pictures right after the wrap, and hours later. You are seriously going to freak out!

Alright, so when you open the wrap it will be wet and you need to pull it apart and find the side with the lotion on it. That is the side that you will apply to your skin.

Now, let's put that bad boy on!

Step 1: Apply to skin. Step 2. Smooth down the wrinkles, to get it as flat as possible in contact with your skin. Step 3. Secure with saran wrap, the Fab Wrap, ace bandage, or a tight tank top. Step 4: Wait 45 minutes!

I ate while I wrapped...not the best idea because I was super full! No worries though because the results are progressive, so I saw progress by the morning! The wrap should feel tingly and cool, that is normal! My husband didn't even know I was wearing it, so if you are short on time you can wrap and go run errands, sleep, or do some chores(or not because chores aren't fun and wrapping should be fun). I played with my crazy boys, and before I knew it the time was up!

Time to remove the wrap and showcase the results! Check the wrap before removing, if you see lotion still on the cloth, leave it on a bit longer so your skin can absorb the rest of the lotion. I removed mine, and rubbed in the lotion that was on my skin.

I could tell my skin was so much tighter! I carry some weight in my upper abs for some reason, and I could tell the wrap helped tighten that area! Here are my results directly after taking the wrap off, and me measuring myself the next morning! An inch lost!

An inch around the waist! Insane! I went from 30.5" to 29.5". I am so excited about my results! You can see that my belly button is tighter, and the top portion of my abs is so much flatter!

Below are my sisters results. She was anxious about sharing her results but they were just too amazing to keep to herself. I wrapped her once. She has not wrapped again, and over a week later she says her stretch marks are still faded with one use. She has not wrapped again or used any other product.

Her skin kept improving, and by morning she was sending me pictures with some hilarious captions! This is not a gimmick, this is for real! She is 6 months post baby, and she was so excited to share with me her progress. I was so happy to do this for her, and I am so grateful that she let me share with you guys! Her stretch marks have continued to fade, and I can't wait to see what continued wraps and our stretch mark cream does for her!

I think this wrap is such a wonderful product. I am on my third wrap, and am down 1.5"! That is insane! I mean it took me 4 months of diet an exercise to lose 2 inches. I am 10 days in and that 1.5" is still gone, and the results are still there. It will last if you couple it with a good diet and exercise routine. Use this wrap to get you up and motivated. Use this wrap to show yourself that you are worth the effort. That you are worth the time and energy to get to the gym and cook your meals. Want to know why you are worth it? Because you were created by God. He created you for a reason, and that reason is so you can serve and glorify Him. You are worth everything to Him. He wants you to love yourself enough to be healthy. He wants you to be healthy so you can serve Him fully. You are worth it. Need help? Ask me. I am here. Don't know where to start? Start with Christ. Ask Him for the motivation. Ask Him to show you how loved you are. Start with Christ first. The rest will follow!

Why It Works!?

Why It Works!? Why this company? Why now? These are questions I have asked myself numerous times in the past month. Initially, I blew It Works! off. Flat out blew her off. I said that isn't for me, and thanks but no thanks. P.S. Please stop telling me about it. 

I felt that wraps were a quick fix and that just wasn't my thing, but for some reason I couldn't stop thinking about this company. I had that little voice in the back of my head saying, "try it, just try it." To which I said, "no, little voice, I don't want to. P.S. Please stop telling me to try it." By the way, we all know the little voice is God right? Okay, good. I didn't want you guys thinking I was crazy...

 In the end, God always wins. He is always there showing you the way, you just have to get out of your own way to see it. So there I was about midnight one night, up reading on all the products and I pulled the trigger. I finally said, God you win. God: 8,753 Whitney: 0 Can you tell I get in the way alot?

So, I started researching their products. The more I read, the more interested I became. I read each products description, ingredient list, and looked up testimonials. Are there people who were negative? Yes, but not many. The overwhelming opinion was, well you guessed it, the products work! Was I still skeptical? Sure I was, but I knew two things. One, I was interested in trying the products for myself because they were all-natural and plant based. Two, if I could share my passion for wellness, and make a little extra money, what did I have to lose?

There were a few other reasons why I chose It Works! as my supplement company, and my new business venture that would lead me to launch Whitney Slack Wellness + Lifestyle. First and foremost, I love that their products are all-natural. Every ingredient is listed on their website. For example, almost all of their products are GMO free, refined sugar free, and some are even gluten-free. It Works! is conscious of what goes into their product, and that was extremely important to me!

It Works! strives to help people from the inside out. The wrap is what gets peoples attention, and rightfully so, I mean the wrap is amazing! I have seen amazing results! But they didn't stop there, they saw a need for all-natural supplements and skin care. I have tried supplements one other time, and for the first time in my life I had acne. Terrible and painful acne. My hormones were thrown completely out of whack, which caused a slew of other side effects that I won't get into right now, but the point is, if you are going to put in on or in your body it has to be compatible with your body. It Works! has done that. They have made their products not only effective, but most importantly, safe!

It Works! has a supplement for everyone! Need more energy, and a way to get more vegetables and fruits in your diet? It Works! has a supplement for that, Greens! Need a way to build muscle, and recover faster? It Works! has a supplement for that, New You! You see where I am going with this? It Works! can help anyone at any phase of their wellness journey, and you know what? Their products are not even the best part. The best part is the people.

I love that I get to really dive into people's health and wellness goals. I love that I get to hear their story, and be a part of their life. It Works! has given me that opportunity. They have given me a platform to share my love for training to the best you can be, but also a platform to share Jesus. A platform to share how to be a good steward of your body, and how being a good steward is worshipful. I have said it before and I will say it again. You get this one body, this one temple, and this one life. What are you going to do with it? I choose to be the healthiest I can be. That means not only fueling and training my body, but also training my mind with Christ. Daily time with Christ is a part of training the temple God blessed me with. I want to help others achieve this mindset, and It Works! and this website are going to give me a way to reach more people than I ever thought possible!

I chose It Works! because I just felt it, that push that you know is Christ telling you to step out on faith.  So, I followed. A followed that tiny voice in the So I am ready! I am ready to help you reach your wellness goals. I am ready to pour everything I know into your wellness journey. I am ready to show you how wellness and Christ go hand in hand. Are you ready?
