DIY stomach pump grossly blends weight loss and gluttony

Can't keep your spoon out of the Nutella jar but need to shed some pounds? This surgically installed stomach valve allows you to chow down to your heart's content, then suck the undigested food out through your belly button (or thereabouts). Yuck! Dubbed Aspiration Therapy by inventor Dean Kamen (yup, the same guy who dreamed up the Segway), the system is already available in Europe; it's awaiting a U.S. patent. The easy weight loss might sound tempting (or not) ... until you view the video. Sorry, no amount of jolly music can make this thing look appealing, but one look might inspire you to ditch the Segway, get some exercise and banish the Nutella to the back of the fridge. [Source]
