    This sounds like a fantastic idea!...for coma patients.

    If you're a fully functional human being and think this is a sound way to lose weight, you should probably get your head checked.

    I just read an article about that and it sounds completely bizarre! Those people must be desperate. :/

    Or lazy!

    Or brainwashed into thinking that they need a size 4 wedding dress rather than a size 6 that they'll do anything to get it. And. . .who can blame them, really? Women are bombarded with this information 24/7.

    $1500 ?!?!

    For $1000, I can come to your house, empty your fridge, lock you in your own basement with a case of water and then come back in 10 days and let you out. Guaranteed 10 lb loss or I'll lock you up for 10 more days at no additional charge.
    Baaah.... Sign me up!! Haah. Thats pretty funny sir... :laugh:

    I just saw this on the news and I was SHOCKED that someone would actually put themself thru this. Should NG tubes be used on people who have medical needs? Not on people who are too lazy to exercise & eat healthy? Seriously...ridiculous!

    Why not just do the Atkins diet? It's the same thing ony you get to actually taste and chew pounds of bacon, steaks, seafood, whatever and go into ketosis. You would still save $$$$$ buying prime rib every day!

    If you could do the same thing but with a slow drip of coffee while chewing bacon the entire time I would be down with it.

    EXACTLY my thoughts!

    We are a culture of instant gratification and quick fixes. Its disgusting, nobody wants to work for anything.

    My question would be: How fast does it come back on when the tube is removed?:ohwell:

    I read that story this morning and it disgusts me. Personally, I think the doctor is just wrong for doing this for his patients. Losing that much weight in that short of a period of time is so dangerous.

    Maybe I am strange, but I'd rather have an outfit I look great in now, than to have to do a weird feeding tube diet and hope it works out.

    This is awful! It can not be healthy. That is just weird science.

    You, sir, are awesome!!!

    Now all you have to do is have Dr. Oz endorse your "diet plan" and you'll be on the road to riches!

    so what you're telling me is that something is stuck into one's body, one limits his or her calorie intake, and he or she pays to do such?

    why does this sound familiar? *cough cough HCG cough cough*
