It's a scam. What little bit of plastic is REALLY going to aid weight loss. It's all a bit pathetic really. I don't know what's in it, but I highly doubt it would aid weight loss.
Also, I think the advert in itself is terrible. There's that girl with the perfect body with the quote "Feeling Fat?" I mean, come on! How to lower self-esteem! She clearly doesn't need to lose weight, yet there she is trying to lose it. It sends out completely the wrong message. it says that even if your that skinny, you still need to lose weight. Also, note the color of the bikini, it's neon pink. Hmm. I wonder who that will appeal to? Pre-teens anybody? I think so! When you're that age you're already conscious enough about your body, that just fuels the size 0 campaign.
Personally, I think it's a disgrace. It should be removed from all sites, no matter where it is. If they are going to advertise it, at least do it in a way that doesn't promote low self-esteem and eating disorders.
Ugh. It makes me SO angry every time I look at it!
