Wtf is this shit?

I keep seeing things on Facebook for people pushing 'Wraps' for weight loss around the abdominal area. So many people are buying into it too.

Has anyone else had this garbage come across their social media accounts yet?


I swear, I need to come up with a weight loss gimmick and mass market it (I looked in to it and it is apparently a big franchising scheme).

Ive thought this many times.... my friends come to me with some new workout system or crazy supplement and ask me what i think... the response is almost always the same "na man just start eating better and cut out all the processed foods, start consistent weight lifting, then if you arent seeing results you use a SUPPLEMENT to SUPPLEMENT your progress.."

Inevitably they come back and tell me they read all this blah blah blah bro science and they bought it anyways then half way through they end up not finishing the product/workout/fill in the blank.

People dont want to hear "its gonna take a long time, it wont necessarily be enjoyable, and youre going to have to work really hard to achieve your goals." they much rather hear "dont change your diet, workout plan, or lifestyle at all.. just take the pill and be fixed!"

a bit of a tangent but still like this annoys me to no end lol.

Water weight is what you're losing. Those things make you sweat basically.

Yeah it sucks.

A large majority of the population has no knowledge on nutrition or lifting.
