Did you see this? Holy cow. "shocking new weight loss device". Reverse feeding tube - it pumps about 1/3 of the food out the stomach 20 minutes after eating. Still requires surgery.

I watched the video. I rate the device at about 11 on my ICK! o meter.

Gives a whole new meaning to the term "pre-chewed food".

We could do an infomercial for the new "make your own baby food at home" device. Why buy baby food when junior can get it straight from the tap! :P

I agree. Sounds like surgically induced anorexia.

I thought the inventor of the segway drove himself off a cliff in Dover or something? Perhaps that would have been better than inventing this....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
