I purchased a kit that contained stretch bands and also came with a slimming belt. This belt is sorta rubberized on one side and you attach around your waist with velcro. After exercising with it on, water is literally pouring off me around my middle. Is this just a scam, or have other people found it helps?

A woman that used to go to my gym always wore one of these; she was telling me how great it is and she showed it to me. I never tried it, but it looks SO uncomfortable -- I can't work out if I feel too hot and I think it would overheat me. This lady LOVED it, but I don't really see how it could produce results (except to make you sweat more). The idea of rubber pressing tightly across my entire midsection while I run is making me sweat already! lol

Some people swear by them. I tried one years ago and felt it was just a scam. I mean, it would be great to spot reduce, but my mama always says, "If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is."

I wore one for a few months with no real results just and extra sweaty mess
