Walking with a Belly Band

Does this change the total calories burned? I normally walk 30 min at 4.0.

    Never heard of this. I'm intrigued. Can you provide a link?

    It helps you shed excess water and trim your waist. It seems to be working, at least the shedding excess water part.

    No, of course not.

    No it's not going to burn additional calories because you aren't increasing the intensity of your workout. But it may boost the amount of fat you burn. That's a big maybe, but for $4.95 what's the risk? I'm gonna try it.

    No, it won't increase fat burned.

    Temporary fix. I doubt the effects would last the day, honestly, if they were visible at all.

    Not trying to be discouraging; just don't want you to be disappointed when you don't get the results that you want. Save your $5 for an extra few bottle of water or for pocket change in case something neat pops up somewhere.

    I'd personally rather put it toward a Spanx cincher if I needed the inches off the waist for the night.
