Anyone ever use the ItWorks! wraps or similar?

I have a friend who swears by these things, the problem is, she also sells them. So I don't feel like I can get a good idea of if they work and how they work from her. It seems silly to think it would actually make you lose inches of what, I don't know. Water? Obviously a wrap isn't going to remove fat, but yet I'm curious...

Anyone use something like this? If so, what results?

    Personally I think they are a waste of money. The only thing it would do is make you lose water.. which once you drink again or eat etc you will gain right back

    That's what I was thinking. I asked my friend how they worked for her and she said she "wraps" every 3 days. That seems like it would get expensive. Also, she said it detoxifies, but again, I don't see how. If anything I have to think it has the same effect as wearing those tight stockings to keep from getting blood clots. When I had to wear those, my legs looked awesome when I took them off for a shower. I imagine it just reduces water in the skin..IDK..
  • The only good thing about them is they leave your skin silky smooth...but same size etc. And that's from experience.
