Webpoet says: this is easily ridiculed, but it's a cool idea (or at least on the path to a cool idea).

The technology is impressive, and the psychology involved is interesting, although I think this is a silly application of such a technology. Who is going to buy and put on these goggles every single time they eat? And for a mere 10% reduction in eating? Not practical as a real product.

yeah, like making a biscuit look larger will stop a fatty from eating it. It's a nice idea but I don't think this will solve anything for people with an eating disorder.
