Belly Bandit does not work!

Belly Bandit does not work! | 2/9/10 5:38 AM
I have had the belly bandit now for 5 weeks and have not shrunk one bit. I was 47 inches and still am. The only thing that changed is the shape of the belly bandit. It bunches up at the waist line and makes it look like you have back fat, like you have a roll right there because the Belly Bandit is BOXY a.k.a. shaped for a woman with no curves! The belly bandit stretched out and even after hand washing does not go back to it's original shape. On top of all this, it INCREASED my back pain and out it in my lower back. I have to go to a physical therapist and my husband has to push me out of bed in the morning! I have tried a couple nights without it and I wake up felling no back pain. I hate that I bought 2 Belly Bandits (one to wear when washing the other like the website said to do) and spent $130. I know there is one out there that has a velcro for the waist and a separate velcro adjuster for the hips. Do not buy the belly bandit! It's not worth it!

You sound like you work a competitor or something. I had a totally different experience. My best friend used one and LOVED it, she then bought me one for my baby shower. It was the only present i really wanted. I can't tell you how much using it changed my body (as opposed to the stomach i had after my first baby). Granted, its a compression wrap so I didn't expect it to be the most comfortable thing in the world, it creased a little bit. It did the job and i look better now then i did then.

Well do it or don't it work because I was thinking about getting the belly bandit, I'm about to have my 3rd child and I didn't do anything to really lose my stomach with the first two, so if it even works a little bit, I'll be happy, I'm not that skinny, but I not big either, I hope it will work for me!

I purchased two thinking they were going to work but had the same problems. It creases alot after a day or two and causes really bad back pain, so bad I had trouble sleeping! Not to mention they are VERY visible under clothing and stick out in the front, I would not waste your money like I did and try to find a cheaper one that will probably give you better results! I didnt shrink like it said either!!

I personally did not care for the bevy bandit. It bunched and was extremely uncomfortable. Total waste of $$$ for this curvy mommy.

I tried it and it was OK, I got better results with this system though, Mama Mio Bootcamp for Tummies:

I loved the way the exercises are designed for mums and the product doesn't contain any nasties - fab! ;-)) x
