    I've seen people do this. Usually overweight middle aged-elderly people at the gym. I feel bad for them, but I think they'll get offended if I tell them they're doing it wrong.

    Putting the bag over your head is probably more effective.

    It doesn't work! I have done it plenty of times for weigh-ins but the water weight will always come back. DOn't do it it's a false reading on the scale. I don't do it any more and i'm trying to do it right this time.

    Preach!

    When i first started working out, my mom suggested this and of course I went along with it like an idiot. It seemingly worked for a neighbor who was struggling with her weight some many years down the line, buuuuuuuut no. It gives false hope. XD

    Some of these comments seriously had me in giggle fits. Made my night.

    But I've heard a story of a girl in my area that wraps her tummy when she walks. Kinda like those rip off wrap parties that you pay $40 to attend and lose water weight. They were all over my Facebook. But once I posted the truth with a couple links their popularity dropped drastically.

    Wrestlers use it for cutting water weight, that or vinyl suits. Why someone who doesn't do competitive sports with weight classes would do it, I couldn't tell you.

    I knew wrestlers in high school who did this. But it does not help with the long term.. perhaps she thought she looks better in black plastic.
