    People do stupid things to lose weight. I prefer doing it right. Slow and steady wins the race.

    Or you know, you could just eat what you like in moderation and move more. People are so ridiculous, lazy and too rich.

    This is so crazy.

    Why would you inflict pain on yourself just to lose weight (that you will more than likely regain).

    There are some stupid fads in the world, this may top them all.

    They would've lost weight by sticking to a 800 calorie juice diet with or without that patch. Moronic.

    lol, the topic title made me think it would involve limb removal or something. :p
    It's not that weird, people get plastic bands clamped over their stomachs, if anything this is less invasive than that. Still, it's much better to change your eating habits and lifestyle than to just give up control for quick, uncomfortable (and likely short-lived) weight-loss.

    I find it ironic that the doctor from the Biggest Loser is pointing out studies that show how most extreme dieters who lose weight rapidly eventually gain it all back – and more.
