    They are a waste of money that do nothing for weight loss.

    Agree. It causes the area to sweat. Quite useless for fat loss, really. They will cause your bank account to lose "pounds", though!

    To lose weight, set up your mfp profile and eat those calories. Use a food scale to weigh your food. That's it. Sweat does not equate to weight loss.

    as a product its a waste of money and not necessary but..... if it motivates you to exercise or jump starts you to lead a healthier lifestyle that is worth something.

    Sweat doesn't mean "FAT LOSS". It just means that your body is trying to cool that part with sweat. You CANNOT spot reduce fat from any part of the body unless it's surgery.

    Your wallet will get lighter from the wasted money. That's the only "benefit" you'll see from them. Sweating doesn't make you lose fat and you can't spot reduce from any particular area of your body.

    Does nothing for fat loss. Waste of money. Pun intended.

    FIFY, because puns are fun.

    Sweating does not equal fat loss. Save your money.
