History of Waist Beads 
Waist beads originate from West Africa and have been traditionally worn as adornment pieces for women as well as young girls entering womanhood as a right of passage. Traditionally, waist beads are covered from the public’s eyes and are only reviled for one’s significant other ;). Historically, waist beads are to be worn with intention and hold specific energy depending on the ritual, color, materials used or reason why the beads were made. Waist beads are usually worn around one’s lower torso and are kept hidden.

Waist Beads – Waist Loss Tracking
Speaking about of holding intention, wearing waist beads are a great way to track your body transformation without stepping on a scale! Speaking from personal experience, constantly weighing yourself can be discouraging and detract from your focus on the overall goal of transforming your body, not necessarily losing pounds. Muscle weighs more than fat so the scale isn’t always an accurate representation of progress especially if you’ve stepped your game up in the gym. Beaded waist bead tracking is an easy way to see and feel your progress during your transformation. Your waist beads will become looser as your waist gets smaller or tighter if you gain in your midsection.

Simply size and wear your waist beads according to your waistline which is the smallest part of your torso and watch them drop over time, (don’t forget to measure loosely!). You will be able to slip off or cut them off once you’ve reached your weight loss goal. You’ll be amazed and motivated in no time, let’s get Hella Snatched!
