WARNING TO PRE-OPS: Think twice, cut once -- or else!
well, I wouldn't mind the homemade cookies, I'll admit that - I had to go to the Girl Scout cookies.
If she didn't actually PLAN WLS, but ended up with it because of cancer - no psych eval cuz they wouldn't have had to submit for WLS prior approval. But who knows what's a lie and what's the truth with this crazy broad. I don't know where the cancer could have been that REQUIRED the BOTH the stomach portion AND the intestional rerouting. I just know she's nuts (and so is the woman on here that's listening to her surgeon and her nut and taking 4 vitamins).

It's alright. Some people have to learn the hard way.
And then there are some that will never learn at all.
I wonder if what she posted discloses that she and her surgeon conspired to fabricate a reason to get her WLS without going through the proper pre-authorization (e.g., because she didn’t qualify, or because she could not possibly pass the psych exam)? I wonder if her insurance company would like to see this thread? She had Barrett’s and they claimed it was cancer??
You're definitely onto something. The gerbil on her ticker is one acorn short of her 145# goal, and she has only lost 69# in her 4 months. She highly doubt she qualified for WLS under the ASBS guidelines. I looked at her pre-op pics, she may have been on the high end of overweight, but I doubt she tipped in at even obese.
She had it to "cure" her ::cough:: cancer.
She crossed the line wishing death & pain onto Chad, but she really pushed it by playing the sympathy card for her non-existent cancer.
I do think that her insurance company would be interested to read all that she has disclosed here & on her profile... I doubt it lines up with what her "world class" surgeon submitted. Bet he really appreciates her dragging him into this.

Highest Known Weight = 370# / 59.7 bmi @ 5'6"
Current Weight = 168# / 26.4 bmi : fluctuates 5# either way @ 5'7" / more than 90% EWL
Normal BMI (24.9) = 159#: would have to compromise my muscle mass to get here without plastics, so this is not a goal.
I my DS. Don't go into WLS without knowing ALL of your options: DSFacts.com
