An anti-WLS group exists?

Or died from obesity! Sadly enough. I wish that there was a HUMAN acceptance group...but I'm a dreamer (and like Kiki, a bit of a tree hugger lol).

Yeah, it listed VGB as the most common procedure. That's changed a lot since then. It's a crazy world and I have front row tickets. kp @ goal

Guess they're not 'movers and shakers'? LOL

WERD, D Tizzle, Certainly not movers butt something must be shaking! Now that's mean!!!! kp @ goal

Fa Shizzel K Dizzel. You know I've been wanting to say something like that all day? But the people I audit during the day probably wouldn't want to hear it. LOL. Michelle

Oh man! I am always a day late and a dollar short. Now that I know that NAAFA (FATNAZIS?) wouldn't approve of my choices, what am I going to do now???!!?? Oh me, oh my! If only I had known! tee

Geez...I looked at the site and I'm surprised they also didn't have something posted saying they are against heart bypass and hysterectomies, etc., etc., etc.

Dani has a yahoo group or at least belongs to a Yahoo group on surgeries gone wrong. Sue has a bunch of anti WL information plugged along side of some "good" information so it can be a bit hard to weed through it without scaring yourself. I refuse to post the links to the sites because as newbie, I happened to run across both these people and they scared the beegeebers right out of me. It took a very wise long term post op to take my hand and walk me through each issue one by one for me to overcome the horror it left on me, and it probably still marks me just a little and takes away a little of my joy. I do NOT recommend these sites to anyone.

The people from the FAT Acceptance Group are zealouts. They are not only against WLS, they are against any type of weight loss. They are mad at Oprah for exercising to lose weight. They are mad at Queen Latifah for losing weight. Anyone that is fat and loses weight is just a sell out to them. They were even mad at Missy Elliot for losing weight even though she said she needed to lose weight for health reasons. They are not buying it. They believe that you can be fat, healthy and happy. Never mind if you may be out of breath from walking a few feet. Never mind you may be in excruiating pain due to all the weight on your joints. Just deal with being fat and don't do anything to try to lose weight or you risk being view as a member of the "anti-fat" group.
