Ok, so I didn't know where else to put this but.....

GOOD GOD- I'm in the bathroom of my building floor and there's a woman peddling body wraps and "fat fighting" pills that "drop carbs directly into your lower colon" as long as you take the pill 15 minutes "after you eat that second piece of cake" but you have to make sure you "don't exercise while you're on it so it goes into your fat cells and you don't sweat it out." {I kid you not, these are all direct quotes}

THIS BULLSH*T PEOPLE POST ONLINE IS FOR REAL?????!? WTF??:noway: :explode: Honestly, I'm absolutely appalled. I don't even know what to do. The girl she was talking to was eating it up with a spoon too.

Open a book. Read a scientific article. For god's sake, think about how your body functions??!?

Phew, ok. I just had to get that out. Thanks MFP. Love you all, even those who are on their journey to the realization that there is no magic besides "eat less, move more.":flowerforyou:

    Agreed. My husband's sister harps on those stupid wraps and fat fighters all day on Facebook, literally like 4 times a day, trying to get people to buy them from her. It got to the point where I had to unsubscribe from her feed because I got unreasonably angry and wanted to throat punch her every time I read "Woah, should NOT have eaten so much pumpkin pie, but it was soooooo good! Good thing I brought my FAT FIGHTER with me, so I don't have to feel guilty!" :noway: Staaaaahp, already. Please.

    hahaha! I hadn't even heard of those in ages. My girlfriend did a wrap the day of her wedding. If it trims you, it's water weight only. Sheesh.

    I once did a seaweed wrap while on a cruise. Not for weight loss, I loved the massage! And she was magic!!!

    If I heard someone saying that I think I'd burst out in hysterical laughter.

    I was so shocked I think I stopped peeing mid-stream. I just kept thinking "Is this real life?"

    Is that the stuff that causes anal leakage, lol?

    My friend's younger brother and his wife are obsessed with that body by Vi crap and post about it constantly, I've actually posted links to articles debunking it right on their posts but it hasn't stopped them yet :laugh:
