Heather M. 4 months agoThat is so awful and wasteful. Granted, I went to the extreme of undergoing a vertical sleeve gastrectomy to assist me in losing weight but I only eat what I can. I cannot binge. I had my surgery back in February of 2012 and I have already successfully lost 120lbs without any major side effects. This pump idea sounds foul.
