Does the plastic wrap trick help you lose weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No!: And it is dangerous. Try eliminating 300 calories from your diet and doing 30 minutes of aerobic exercise every day. You will creat a negative balance of about 600 cal/day which equates to about 1 lb of wt loss per week.
