No, I am not all of a sudden the fittest man on Earth, but losing another 2 kilograms feels like a load off my shoulders. Why exactly these last 2 kilograms make me feel this way, I don’t know. I must have hit some sort of artificial boundary that allows me to feel better about myself. And hey, I was able to stay away from those darn chocolate bars the kids were eating at a party last week! Yummy Mars and Snickers.. but I think they contain like 290 calories a piece. NOT good for someone like me. Oh well if I can just keep it up long enough i’ll be able to consume some of those in my next life without actually feeling guilty.

Wife made pancakes yesterday evening. Now normally i’d eat about 6 of them (and they are pretty big), but last night just 3. For some odd reason I wasn’t THAT hungry. Has my stomach shrunk? Or is that even possible through natural ways? Hmm something I will have to look up.

Anyway, have a good weekend.

George.

I never thought about it, but it does make sense. A small company is introducing a device that restricts jaw movement, forcing you to take smaller bites. I came across it through Google, the news article is from last year. To me the device doesn’t actually look comfortable. Won’t it cause problems with your jaw? They’ve tested the device on 50 Europeans, and will be starting trials in the US soon. If approved in the US it would be the first oral-weight loss device gaining approval.


Small Bite Inc. CEO Denis Mulder displays his company’s device, which is designed
to help people lose weight by making them take smaller bites, ultimately reducing the
amount of food they eat. The Haverford company hopes to start patient clinical trials
in Philadelphia early next year.

Americans perennially try to lose weight. They try diets. They try pills and
supplements. Some even opt for surgery to make their stomachs smaller.
But many of these methods don’t work long-term, or, in the case of bariatric surgery,
not everyone is ready for such a drastic step.
Now one company, Small Bite Inc., thinks it may have an answer.
