The Shake weight!

I saw the ad on tv here and it was every bit as good as I thought it would be!  I saw clips on Ellen.  

I also saw an ad for bump it a few days ago, I'm getting all excited to come home now!

    No way MH!  Did you try did?  Did you wet yourself while trying it?

    That is why I won't get it, I can see why it would work, and I need to tone for the wedding, but I am afraid I will piss myself laughing every time I try to use it.

    HAHA they have the shake weight at Bed Bath and Beyond.  FI was trying to get me to try it when we were shopping Saturday.  I guess just trying to maintain a grip on it uses your muscles?

    H and I both looked at it like, WTF?  The women's one isnt very heavy so I didn't feel like it did anything for the 15 seconds that I was playing with it.

    To be honest, every time I see the commercial I think it looks very inappropriate.  Especially the women jerking the weight up and down.... it's just not right.

    My mom also bought this jewel https://www.abcirclepro.com/
    H was absolutely mortified when she climbed on and started swaying her a$$ from side to side. Surprised

    <div>My mom always buys stuff esp. if it's on HSN!  I bet that's really hard or if it was done right would be very hard.  </div>

    What's funny is that she'll spend money on these crappy gimmicky machines but wont get on the floor and do a push up, or go outside to take a walk.  It just confuses me.

    My mom's a QVC-er.

    I got the shake weight for my friend and we tried it out...I don't think it works (at least not the woman's version) since it's really light.

    I also got the bump it!  I was excited about it but I guess my hair is just not thich enough to cover it.  You'd be better off teasing your hair =)

     I'm not sure if any of you are South Park fans (I'm not, but DH is), but they did a whole episode around the Shake Weight (and food network) and it is HYSTERICAL!!!  Highly recommend....

    I rarely watch South Park, but I agree with you Cara.  That was one of the best episodes ever.
