I used to do wraps whenever I was experiencing a plateau. I would go for a session once a month and noticed a visible difference not to mention it would end my weightloss stall. Now this was when I was working out religiously and really watching what I ate. So I know those had something to do with the great results.

Sure the wrap may not have been the root cause of my skin bouncing back, but it did help my skin look/feel much tighter, stopped my plateau, and even eliminated headaches (not sure why/how).

I posted on the pinned one on the other forum. Which this should just get deleted because the same posts are in that one! LOL! I was the first one to call BS, and I got the shut hell up bite back from the members. It is BS. If this stuff really worked we would know about it and we wouldn't have to ask what works. Advil takes the pain away...we know advil. The stupid skin tightening procedures would be like advil to us. My skin will never go back. I was fat when I was 15 in my thighs and that skin is the worst. That is 20 years of stretched skin with stretch marks. No wrap is going to fix that. Maybe some lipo, but everything that might work is surgical in nature or just plain old surgery. It is like when people say the cold weather makes you sick. Bacteria and germs make you sick. Going out in the cold without a jacket does not make you sick.

Whats the harm in having a conversation? Not all people have the same skin damage as you. We are all adults that researched a serious operation to save our lives, I think we can handle a conversation about topical creams and wraps without causing a mass hysteria.

Not all of us experienced obesity at an early age, so our body/skin may bounce back better than others. That just like saying women shouldn't try to prevent stretch marks from pregnancy. Guess what those efforts have been proven to work. I have family and friends that have benefited from wraps, and lost weight with firmer skin! Some of it may be genetics, but hardworking and perseverance plays a huge part in all of us getting to where we want to be physically. With that being said, if isn't for you then participate in the threads that you believe in. I see things on here that I may not agree with, but I don't have all the answers to any subject. So I stay quiet, and keep the peace.

I have a wrap today it is a waste of $ 85 if you ask me. I didn't see no difference whatsoever or that good feeling you got after a massage. I rather go to my masseuse than having that expensive crap

What type of wrap did you get?

You live and u learn.. Don't get another one and move on! Although I heard some are shams and some really so work. But ShayV123 I couldn't of said it better myself. This is a place for positive vibes and help support not attacking and bringing ppl down! If it didn't work for u then don't do it again.. If it did more power to you!!! Everyone is unique and everyone's bodies are different what works for you may not work for me and vice versa! I say be happy enjoy this journey that we have been luckily to have in our life's!!

It was at body by design: herbal contouring body wrap. Waste of money

Ok, do you have follow up with specifics amounts of Water for the next few days? If I'm asking too much, ignore me. I'm just comparing what I've heard from others.

Exactly, I just got my sleeve last week so I'm still recuperating. I am so looking forward to the upcoming months of skinnyville.

I had a herbal contouring body wrap, a wasted of time and money. You are better off wearing plastic clothes and run.

Because you sweat when they wrap you so it is only fair to drink water to replace the fluid loss.

Different type of wrap, thanks for answering.

WOW!! I read the conversations via my phone so I hope I didn't miss anything, you know sometimes the notifications don't all go through.

I just want to start off by thanking those who are not being mean to me by basically shooting me down and trying to make me feel stupid for believing in something that has worked on me and tightening my skin.

I tried a body wrap 7years ago when I lost weight with Phentermine, I paid 90.00 and realized it was all a scam. I was still open minded though. Not all products are failure or scams. I bet those of you who say "there is nothing to help the skin tighten" <in a whiney annoying voice>, well I bet you prob have even used Nivea firming lotion or over the counter products? so Whatever.

I have been damaging my skin on and off with every diet and medication pills to help loose weight since I was 16, I always been overweight and thin.. yoyo weight loss victim. Every other year I would loose 20-50lbs and gain it back within the year!

This time I did try the wraps because my friend kept telling me about them, so after 4months of her begging me to try them.. I did.. and I LOVED THEM, THEY FLIPPIN WORKED! It is a one of a kind patent item! no other wrap is like this one with the ingredients. It is fairly new and not sold in store of course.

I got super duper happy and wanted to share the product with people who have the same skin slackening problem! But well it backfired on here, but whatever if you don't believe then don't believe and don't BE MEAN! You dont know me and I don't know you, SO LEARN TO RESPECT MY OPINIONS BEFORE YOU TRY AND BELITTLE WHAT I LIKE AND WORKS FOR ME!

Sorry if I can't afford plastic surgery and trying different products! I will continue to use what works for me and those who have tried it and works for them.. GOD BLESS THEM FOR GIVING THEM A TRY and working on them!

If I could I would give these away but I can't of course! It costs money!! I have done wrap parties with my friends who have had weight loss surgeries, I take pictures and measurements. before and after, they are amazed and love it! There is this one who who had terrible skin slackening.... guess what I did.. I let her have 3 wraps for the price of 1!!!!!! yes I did that becauses I felt her pain!!! Out of my pocket!!! I am trying to help people and that is it. I too have feelings so please stop trying to shoot at me verballyl! Again the thing with the internet.. people have the guts to say what they really wouldn't say in your face. And for you to keep poking at it.. well just pathetic ... This died down and again it was bought back up.. to those of you and you know and can speak up.. who have asked me for info.. HAVE I GIVEN IT TO YOU? no, ... so to those of you who think it's a scam and think I jumped to the opportunity when there interested in buying them. and take their money.. no sorry, I am not like that. I will however get back to you.

I am currently doing 2 fundraisers for NYC friend of mine and her family who are now homeless due to the hurrican and another friend who passed away Halloween morning due to cancer and lives in NY, trying to plan a funeral in the mist of the disaster is hard and well I have been busy with that...... Sorry I have been busy.

I am just thankful my wraps have helped me to be an awesome Halloween sexy chick, I wasn't going to dress up, since I was crying all day about my friend passing on, but last minute I did, for my daughter. She was a pretty butterfly and wanted us to hang out and do something. So I did. Once I get a moment I will look for my before cellulity saggy thighs and my Halloween look so you can see the difference.

I am not looking for enemies or getting mean messages, so please stop. Really, we are adults, lets act like adults and respect one another. Thank You!
