Yes, You Can Eat Your Cake and Diet Too: Revolutionary New Medical Aid Permits Guilt-Free Eating

There's one little catch: You need a surgical operation to install an emptying tube directly into your stomach, which may then be opened so that the contents of your stomach can be poured out into a toilet.

"The A-Tube is a thin silicone rubber tube that connects the inside of the stomach directly to a discreet, poker-chip sized Skin-Port on the outside of the abdomen. The Skin-Port has a valve that can be opened or closed to control the flow of stomach contents. The patient empties a portion of stomach contents into the toilet after each meal through this tube by connecting a small, handheld device to the Skin-Port. The emptying process is called 'aspiration.'"

That's one word for it.

Another possible word is "horrifying."
