There are a surprising number of women who've been convinced to have 2, 3 or more of them, and surgeons are willing to do them. The victims are blamed for the surgeries failing. They didn't correctly "use their new tool" they're told (and they believe this nonsense). The women I've seen going in for a repeat surgery are not even that big - one sat in a bariatric seminar already looking ill and sipping this brown-gray liquid the entire time. Each surgery is more dangerous and induces increasingly more starvation, trying to "work." The head trip they give these women is tragic and perverted. I want to shake women, too, for buying into it. It's so upsetting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397186280973403909.post-8748918724105714582008-01-15T21:22:00.000-06:002008-01-15T21:22:00.000-06:00OMG, this is so disgusting! I can't believe that ...OMG, this is so disgusting! I can't believe that any doctor would authorize WLS at 269 lbs ... not that there's any high enough weight to really justify it, but come on! 269 is not that high, really!<BR/><BR/>And 186???? This calls for a "revision WLS"? What the hell happened to the hippocratic oath that these doctors supposedly took upon entering their professions? Are they REALLY that fucking horrified of "teh fat"?Diana Cournoyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09430009928662449479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397186280973403909.post-13618905136279602712008-01-15T20:12:00.000-06:002008-01-15T20:12:00.000-06:00TR - yeah, I was just flabbergasted when I read th...TR - yeah, I was just flabbergasted when I read that email, and even more so when I researched it and found that article.
