Okay, I thought I would take a turn asking a question

What is the weirdest/dumbest diet/fitness contraption you've ever bought???


I am such a sucker for infomercials when I'm feeling fat/down, so I actually bought one of those Hip & Thigh machines... so stupid...

What about you?

I admit to buying a "weight loss patch" a few years ago.... pfft.... I guess it's not weird, just stupid! I was more gullible back then.

ummmm, this thing that you were meant to sniff and it was supposed to supress your appetite that was weird.

Haven't bought anything weird myself, but my mom bought these rubber belts that were supposed to help you "sweat off" your middle! Needless to say they didn't work, and we all ended up getting rashes and chafing.

I too fell for the weight loss patches. The only thing that got thinner was my wallet.

Oooh I had a chocolate diet a few years ago... You ate a chocolate bar for breakfast, a chocolate bar for lunch and normal dinner. you can't get that any more. Gutted! Oh it was special chocolate BTW, with nutrients in.

I bought the "torso tiger" and the "ab doer", not too weird I guess, but they didn't work any better than doing crunches.

Never bought anything weird...but the dumbest thing I bought was the Ab Roller...that was the biggest piece of crap...ever!

[trnsfrmnreplace]

I haven't bought anything out of the ordinary either. I did also get the ab roller... hahaha. I don't think it was too bad but it sure didn't help to support your neck and back. We actually cut it up and destroyed it the other week, it took up way too much space!

I have a ball now , but i recommend it. I also have a stair stepper that i love.

Daisy- I remember those! how did i make you feel?

I usually stay away from those things, but one time someone convinced me to buy the appetite supressent cookies. Oh my gosh were they horrible! Why did I buy a box of 25?!?!?!?
