It works - but does it reeeeally?

Spotted this gem on Facebook from my cousin. I've fallen off the wagon recently (too many buffet and picnics) but I am not tempted by this. Surely it's short term and you can achieve similar results with a roll of value clingfilm and maybe some Olive oil?! 8erqi4tl51qk.jpg

    It Works is one of the biggest MLM scams around.

    Oh man - some users have tried them and admit that they work very temporarily. So - going to a wedding? Put on on and it might help you get rid of 3/4 of an inch (all in bloat, not fat), but it'll be back the next day.

    Everyone else who has tried them will attest to the fact that they don't work and are a scam.... except for the occasional MFP'er who happens to be a dealer of said product. OMG - the conversations that have erupted around those....

    Might work for temporary results for an event or something - but beyond that I wouldn't waste my money. In fact for the event I'd just get some spanx and skip the whole saran wrap thing....

    No, it really doesn't. They are liars. They are scammers. Don't be a sucker. Don't give them your money.

    Not sure why you were flagged. You're clearly not promoting it (unless through reverse psychology). People are strange. Anyway...

    You admit being related to the person who posted that?

    Hmm... I'm totally not supporting it. Thanks @PaulaWallaDingDong for noticing the flagging. Weird. And yes, I'm related to her! She's younger and more gullible. Does motivate me more to keep on at it the CICO way just so when I see her at a family do in the summer I can say I made this change to my body for free! And through the magic that is eating less and exercising more!
    (I know that's not always the case - some people eat loads of need to eat more to fuel their bodies for training. Not me. I'm a pig. I need to just step away from the flapjack. And the wine. And get on this bike.)
