    Think about it.

    Take a step away from the computer and as a rationally minded adult think about the claims that are made compared to what you know about the working of the human body.

    There you go, there's your answer.

    It's a total scam. While they "temporarily" work on reduction (water weight), the skin just expands back out to normal after a couple of hours. The same if you wore underwear too that was too tight. Might be fine for an "event", but as for fat loss.....................there NOTHING topical you can put on your skin to help you lose body fat. Physiology just doesn't work that way.
    She got duped in to being a seller of an MLM product, which usually means low quality product for high price that doesn't really do what it claims to do nor does it have any peer reviewed clinical studies to back claims.

    When I showed horses people could make a relatively decent horse look AMAZING in just a few hours by wrapping it in plastic/cling wrap and "sweating" the horse. It would cause the neck and legs or wherever it was wrapped to dehydrate and shrink up. However, shortly after drinking water and rehydrating you had the same old animal again.

    All they are doing is compressing and dehydrating an area of the body which does cause a decrease in loose skin, appearance of fat, and less inches... however it is completely temporary.

    If it were that easy, don't you think obesity would be less of an issue?

    Any company that claims you can lose fat without eating a proper diet and exercising is not an honest company. Walk away.

    Let me guess. She's selling them, huh?

    Itworks is just another MLM scam. The only thing you'll permanently lose is your money. :)

    Most companies do state with diet and exercise, I'm not certain about this one.

    OP, the diet and exercise is what makes the difference. Save your money.

    Use saran wrap. Same thing. A waste of money.
