It Works! wraps - anyone tried them?

[Sam_2.0]

Pretty sure these are just the latest mlm scheme going on. I get invited to a party every week it seems! But there is no way I am paying that much for the wraps. Thanks to Google I found out you can do the same thing with plastic wrap and prep h cream, lol! No way to permanently lose inches and fat other than diet and exercise. But I figured I would give my homemade wraps a try just so I have my own set of silly belly pictures no worries won't post on FB, but DH is cracking up over here

Update - I did the DIY wraps two days in a row. "Lost" 2 inches! Pretty sure it will all be back as soon as I have some pizza and beer this weekend, but it was a silly experiment anyway.

Hey, cost nothing and was probably a good laugh....why not?

I have a stupid question - what are you wrapping? I read your OP when it was first posted, and I still haven't the faintest clue what you're talking about

I assume body parts. Slather up your thighs with butt cream and wrap them up in saran wrap.

[chiver78]

seriously? I do that with my hands - lather 'em up and cover overnight - but that's to prevent them from drying out.

wow. who was the first to think that was a good idea?

[Sam_2.0]

Its a belly wrap. I guess boxers/wrestlers do it all the time. Still down an inch today, but I am guessing that's due more to the fact that I have been drinking water & no soda than anything.

But yeah, so not paying $100 for four wraps. They might have extra stuff in them to make them smell pretty, but that's about it

I'm still lost. You put PreparationH on your stomach and then Saran Wrap yourself? How long do you stay wrapped?

[Sam_2.0]

I wrapped with plastic wrap from below my ribs to the top of my hips (like most of the wrap demos show for the other product). The It Works! wraps say to do it for 45min - overnight, so I wrapped up before I went to bed. Not too tight, you have to still be able to breathe & you don't want to bruise or anything. I am guessing its not something you would want to do regularly. I used the prepH wipes from one of the drugstore deals awhile back, so I don't know if those are different than the cream or not.

We do biggest loser at work. My STBX wrapped himself up in saran wrap overnight and lost 11 lbs due to it and "won" the competition. Of course, it was all back pretty fast That reminds me we have weigh-in tomorrow and I have not been doing so good, maybe I will wrap myself up tonight

A friend of mine actually did the wrap thing and lost 15.5 inches. She claims it is all due to that but it also coincides with her starting to run marathons. Then she signed up to be a dealer or whatever you call the people who sell it. Now she is annoying everyone on facebook.

I've got deadly upper arm flab. Think it would work on that? I'm a teacher so when I erase the board it's WATCH OUT!

[Sam_2.0]

You can always try, saving4norway!
