    All you need is a machine to remove it from your hands.

    Yikes!

    I went there snooping around, convinced I'd discover it was a parody site, a joke, just for giggles... but it actually "seems legit" for lack of a better phrase lol

    At least the study in the US is limited to people with a BMI of 35 to 55... though it ought to be based on BF%!!!!

    No, just no!

    Fail!

    I've got a long way to go to get my healthy habits and choices nailed, but this just seems wrong to me!

    I remember seeing the news for this item.
    I felt awful that people were actually considering doing this to themselves.

    So...you just walk around with a tube sticking out from your abdomen?

    Aside from all the eating disordered problems with this, how the heck is this even safe at all? A tube like that near all those organs??? No thanks.

    There's already a way to pump food out. It's called taking a ****.

    Wouldn't it be cheaper and less unpleasant just to hire someone to slap the food out of your hand?

    The only way I imagine someone would really want this is if they've had dreams of being a human tap.

    Ew and no.

    I would say sign me up, but I worry someone might take it at face value.
