Suddenly Slimmer Body Wraps
I have heard about these body wraps. I have seen them on talk shows and their claim is that you can lose like 6-20 inches in one wrap. My husband has said that I can go and get these done but I am apprehensive. I am not so sure it will work or that I will be disappointed with the results. Has anyone had any of these wraps?
Sounds like dehydration to me. You take enough lasix or water pills you can get the same effect. Or sit in a sauna for hours...or work out wrapped in plastic wrap. And then, IMHO, you can have the grand pleasure of feeling like crap while your electrolytes are all outta whack.
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.
Yeah, I've had one, and it was RIDICULOUS. They wrap you from head to toe like a mummy with Ace bandages, and leave you for an hour before unwrapping you. You FEEL silly. You LOOK ridiculous. And you might be a tiny bit slimmer immediately afterwards - from the compression alone - and then you're right back to your original dimensions within the hour. It's a total waste of time, money, and dignity.
AND I WAS TONING IT DOWN!!! LOL I didn't even mention how they left us (I did it with some friends) in a room with no chairs, since we couldn't sit, anyway, wrapped like that, with only tall tables (since we were standing, anyway!) with oooooold magazines and a TV/VCR combo that didn't get any channels, and they only had two video tapes - one was Free Willy (a whale movie, REALLY, for women who are trying to slim down!??) and the other was ET - since we all felt like aliens wrapped up like that! The whole thing was beyond ridiculous, and i think we paid like $60 each!
