I found it more sickening than amusing. Apparently the patients have an open port into their stomach? Sounds like it's begging for an infection. I agree with the reviewer who said it's an enabling machine, and horrifying!

Oh, my. Yes, let's just continue to eat, eat, eat because we can just dump it out of our stomach port if we eat too much, or the wrong things. That's exactly what I DON'T want. *sigh*

I found it funny that the creators of Segway are amongst the inventors...Segway?? Those little impossible two wheel mall security guard patrol thingies... When did they become qualified to meddle in human health!

Also the name aspireAssist, what aspirations would this be assisting me in?? Even the "inventor" referred to it as gross lol

That poor guy who doesn't want to have his body altered forever... Really? Every time you eat you have to empty your guts, I would say that's more than altering your body. He can just throw up whatever he eats and get the same results for free!

And if you really think about it, you're going to be hungry after your empty your stomach so you're probably going to replace the same calories you just tried to get rid off with more food...

Also, they didn't think of the long term implications? Whatttt?!?! And it's on the market in some places :-(

Can you imagine seeing half digested cheese coming out from a tube in your stomach? *barf*

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
