Need info about It Works! wraps



Recommended Posts

Good morning! I am wondering if any banders have tried the It Works! wraps to help lose fat and inches. I am almost 7 months post surgery and have lost nearly 60 pounds. I am looking into the It Works! wraps as an additional tool to help me meet my goals. If you know anything about using these with a band, please share!

well from what i understand, the wraps help you lose (Water weight) and not real inches/pounds lost

to lose weight you must eat less calories than you burn off..but if you like it, then use it....

As I understand it, the results are temporary. Just trust your band, follow doctors orders and you will be fine without the extra expense. IMHO

My doctor said you either will or will not have sagging skin. He never said but if you try the wraps. Mis made a really good post while ago about the wraps. Something like they have diruretics in them and they draw out a lot of Water. Hopefully she will reply to this post.

I would like to know more about these also, have friends who sell them and being inundated from acquaintances on Facebook. They swear it is not a temporary Water loss. Hope we have some people that know more than me. hugs

My guess is that this is like a "hillbilly lapband" it causes restriction and won't let your stomach expand beyond a certain level.

I cannot see the point of combining them though. You are already far more restricted with the band than what this could ever do.

Again, just my guess...

If you want to lose pounds and inches, why not just do it the legitimate way-cut your food intake and exercise more? You didn't have WLS as a quick fix so why waste your money on another gimmick?

I just don't get it...

Hillbilly lapband!!! That's hilarious. Lol. I've never tried them myself.... They seem to be getting really popular though.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
