    Albolene is a make up remover. What does it have to do with weight?

    "quick fixes for temporary weight loss."

    http://www.albolene.com/quick-fixes-for-weight-loss/

    the tagline should speak for itself.

    Lol that the same thing I said but it works similar to the it works products . You rub it in place the Saran Wrap then the excercise belt and the sweat is insane !

    You have 10 pounds to lose. Eat a little less, move more. No snake oil required.

    the thing with the "it works" product is that you have to keep using it. it's good for, like, a special event, but it's not going to do YOU any good.

    everybody wants your money in this world.

    Sweating is not a measurement of fat loss. Consistent hard work, and consistency of eating at deficit is.

    And then when you hydrate again it all comes back. The active ingredients are the same ones in Icy Hot and Preparation H.

    Many people also huff petrol, doesn't mean it's good for you, even though it gives them a quick fix.

    That is not an endorsement. That is simply showing how many people are dumb enough to believe this does anything.

    It's a waste of money unless you need a make up remover. Seriously, you're only losing water temporarily through sweating. You'll regain it as soon as you hydrate.

    You're welcome, but this makes me curious... why do you think you believed it? And good on you for asking about it.

    It Works products also do not work. To effectively lose weight and keep it off long-term you need to burn more than you consume. CICO. I did so many fad diets, including using waist trainers at the gym, working out in a sauna suit, cleanses/detoxes, diet pills, and even that stupid ish you sprinkle on your food...yeah... that was a low point. I didn't lose nearly 80 lbs over night; I ate at a reasonable calorie deficit and exercised. This is a lifestyle change. Quick fixes simply do not work.

    There is no "magic" or "quick fixes".

    People have been talking about it comparing it to the expensive it works craz I refused to buy that for 60 so I bought this for a mere 7. On top of that my doctor told me I likely have lots of water weight and I'm should try to lose 10lbs ... I'm not sure how to lose this water along with some fat ..

    That just happens as you go. Keep up the hard work, and it will happen.

    up your water intake. after a few days, you should drop some major water weight. :)

    What's wrong with having too much water? aren't we something like 65% water? Obviously too much can cause problems, but if it is already part of your body what is the problem? it's fat that is the problem. Your kidneys will filter the excess water.

    But the other point. Sweating is pretty much rubbish as a measurement of weight loss because it will just come back. I can be 4lbs lighter after drinking lots of alcohol. My fat content is the same though (or probably higher lol).
