So, let me get this straight; to lose weight, I have to French a Gila Monster.
Actually, that would probably work.

If you let the Monster grab hold of your leg with its tenacious, poisonous, bite....that too would aid weight loss.

The lizard spit diet.

Wait for human testing. The study group drinks gila monster saliva. The control group drinks water but is told that it is gila monster saliva. I am guessing appetite drops in both groups.

Will, I think you're right - if I thought I had to consume Gila Monster drool before each meal, my appetite would vanish, too.

This is old news - the diabetes treatment drug Byetta is a syntesized version of Gila Monster saliva, and has been in use since April 2005. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byetta
