a new WLS

By dylanmiles23

While most of you were sleeping I turned on Night Line around 12:30am and they talked about a new WLS, something Aspire. They hook up a device onto your stomach and 20 minutes after you eat your meal you hook up a vacuum type device to your stomach thing and it empties your stomach contents into the toilet. How gross is this? My husband said it is like throwing up. It is being used in Europe and tested in the US. They did mention the Band, Bypass and the Sleeve and said the Aspire is less invasive. Never would I ever think of something that gross.

 

I had an appointment with the doctor tomorrow for a fill but Boston is getting a blizzard so it is now next week. I am happy about that because my oldest son is turning 38 Sunday and we are going out for dinner. Now I can eat and not just have a hot tea.

Have a super day everyone. Time for food shopping and the gym.

    I read about that too. Honestly, I found it absolutely sickening. It's like programming people to be bulimic, malnourished, and overall extremely unhealthy. I'd rather be 400 pounds again than have that. Ugh.

    I prefer my bulimia the natural way, fingers down the back of your throat. Are you sure it wan't an article off of "The Onion"?

    They showed it and explained it on tv. If you go to Night Line's site I am sure you can see how gross it is. I have never did the fingers down the throat. That to me is too gross.
