Default Wrap yourself skinny?

Has anyone ever tried any of the wrap products that are supposed to be an alternative to plastic surgury? Someone I know referred me to this site www.wrapyourselfskinny.com and swears that it works. I haven't seen her results in person and pictures aren't always the best way to tell.

I havent seen this exact one before,I do know there are a ton online you can buy. I do go and get a skin tightening wrap ever 20-30lbs I lose. does it really make a difference? Well i dont know...i know the last time i was on a crazy diet and lost 100lbs i didnt have any loose skin when i got down to my goal weight. Would that have happened with out them who knows. I really do them as a part to pamper myself and in hopes they really do work..hubby doesnt complain because he is really trying to avoid PS bills

I hadn't thought of going to be wrapped every 20-30 lbs but it sounds like an interesting idea! I have done wraps in the past. Do they work? Temporarily, they help tighten. But if you gain any weight, then the inches lost are gone. However, since we have had WLS, this could be a different situation...

I will have to look into that further.
