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....

kcinpa,

How bad can it be? After all it's not like they are cutting out 85% of the persons stomach or anything. :P

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
