lol or whatever they are called.
For people who have actually had experience with them, do they really help with losing belly fat? I know the general consensus is that you can't lose weight in one spot only, but I'm wondering if wearing sweatbands during cardio encourages faster loss in your mid-section. I've worn one once around the house and it did make my belly sweaty, but I don't know if that really matters because I haven't figured out if sweating in one area means the fat is burning under the skin in that one area or what.
Any input would be appreciated either pro or con.
