Lou's doctor literally told him he is too fat, and I can assume that by association, nobody would have sex with him. :story:

But in all seriousness, if the doctor really suggested bariatric surgery, Lou's almost certainly getting into extremely dangerous weight territory. Bariatric surgery is often used as a last resort sort of move for super-obese people where part of your stomach is blocked off, making it so that you will feel full with less food and therefore stop eating so much fucking food so you can lose some weight.

If my occasional watching of My 600 Pound Life has taught me anything, most doctors aren't able to do that sort of surgery once the patient is over a certain weight limit. If Lou's doctor actually suggested it, it's extremely likely that Lou is dangerously close to the threshold where he can still safely get the surgery (and even then, most doctors really don't like to suggest this procedure since there's a lot of risks/side effects to it).

Given Lou's history of ignoring medical advice, I predict one of two things will happen:
1) he doesn't get the surgery, gets even fatter, and by the time he realizes how incredibly fucked over he is, it'll be too late. At best, he'd have another lifelong condition, and at worst he'd be dead.
2) he gets the surgery, then proceeds to ignore all the after-surgery treatment and gets an infection of some kind (which he will then claim is the doctor's fault and/or they botched the surgery).
(Note how neither option is particularly positive, because while I'd love to be optimistic and see Lou turn his life around, everything in this thread so far has proven that idea wrong)

Honestly, the whole thing would be depressing if not for the fact this is Lou we're talking about. There are some lolcows I genuinely feel bad for because they clearly have mental issues that were magnified by being on the internet 24/7, but not so with Lou. He's continued to be stubborn and obnoxious for years before this thread existed, he's had numerous health scares already that he's taken no effort to fix, and he's shown no capacity for learning from his mistakes. Regardless of if he gets the surgery or not, he will continue to be as stubborn about it as everything else in his life and will most likely remain obese and unfuckable until the day he dies.
 
holy shit Lou, at what point do you even listen to what you think/say slower? Lou is reaching the point of no return in terms of his weight and shows no signs of stopping his current lifestyle, even getting diabetes and losing a foot bone as a result of it. Mama Gags not even doing anything to force Lou into changing really tells one of the following:
1. Lou is absolutely hiding a lot behind the scenes, possibly even committing elder abuse and child abuse behind all of this "I'm such an abused transwomyn furry! donate to my PP!" Facade.
2. Mama Gags is absolutely using Lou's "disability" status to the point that I feel as if once Lou dies Mama Gags will commit disability fraud by claiming Lou is still alive and getting his money as a result
 
I meant why is Lou so anti-WLS?
It could be that Lou has bought into the "all bodies are beautiful, so don't fat shame, you bigot!" line of thinking. But more likely, it's probably because...

Bariatric surgery is often used as a last resort sort of move for super-obese people where part of your stomach is blocked off, making it so that you will feel full with less food and therefore stop eating so much fucking food so you can lose some weight.

...Lou will never give up his family of four sized portions of spaghetti and tendies.
 
I meant why is Lou so anti-WLS?
Because he knows he won't get to stuff his face with spaghetti anymore. And because his food issues are psychological, he can't comprehend that WLS obliterates physical hunger so he worries that he'll be hungry and won't be able to eat as much as he wants. All deathfats with psychological issues related to food (are there any other kind?) feel pretty much the same way.
 
I'm not going to go on a rant about this, but I can assure you that I am MATI right now, so throw hats my way.

Just more evidence that Louie is so fucking desperate to ride that Disability train for the rest of his pathetic life.

Eh, I think Louie is already getting some kind of welfare payments and knows he doesn't qualify for disability and can't double dip. I think Louie is just so depraved and broken that he cares more about being able to eat all the garbage food he wants than he does keeping all his extremities and limbs attached to his body. Even with his Diabeetus he's still able to eat all the spaghetti and McDonald's that he wants, even if he really shouldn't. But if he got some kind of weight loss surgery like a Gastric Bypass or Lap Band then he absolutely WOULD have to change his diet. Not just by eliminating certain foods entirely, but also cutting down his serving sizes drastically. And that's just something that Louie would never bring himself to do. Next to spending money that he scammed from other people on expensive shit that he doesn't need, I think eating is the only other thing in the world that Louie actually loves and enjoys. His only two loves in life are mindless, excessive consumerism, and stuffing his fat face until he weighs as much as a Ford 427ci Cammer V8.

...why wouldn't he consider surgery? i genuinely want to know. His tone is that it's obvious why it's bad, but... It's not inherently bad.

See my above comment. Louie wants to be able to pig out on all the junk food he can eat, and he wouldn't be able to do that anymore if he got weight loss surgery.
 
You know, I’ve never seen him talk about donating plasma. You can’t make a living off of it, but it’s okay for a little extra money now and then, good for surprise “60 dollar” incidents and all you do is sit around after being poked.

Also, sixty bucks? Sounds like Louie wants a new commission or a new game.
A little late, but Lou can’t donate plasma. Diabetics with a dependence on insulin/neuropathy don’t qualify and most centers have a weight limit of 400 pounds. You also have to meet certain health requirements (pulse, bp, and hematocrit/total protein). So Lou isn’t even capable of that. He’s totally useless.

Do people usually crowdfund weight loss surgeries...? Nevertheless I don't see why this warrants pessimism Lou, you could be tapping a juicy market right now funding for that weight loss surgery bud. ;D Go the boogie route!

Hell, he's begged for less morally-sound things...
Given that people already crowdfund dickchops and all that, yeah, probably.

There are 5,105 active ebegs on gofundme for WLS right now. Most of them actually seem serious, like the woman asking for donations for skin removal. Lou is sleeping on this untapped avenue for attention seeking and other people’s cash.

Bariatric surgery isn't a last-ditch effort for the super-obese. Or at least not exclusively. It's a medical weight loss tool, especially used for folks who have struggled through numerous weight loss cycles without success. The process around qualifying for the surgery is intense, involving months of supervised/directed diet and exercise, nutrition discussions, and a psych eval. But it requires work, long term, to make it all stick.

The surgeries are a lot safer now than they maybe have been in the past, and some surgeons and hospitals are able to boast 99.9% success rates (success here being defined as "no catastrophic complications post-surgery"). The greatest risk involved in the surgery is honestly the patient's weight and size, which is one of the reasons why larger patients get told they have to lose weight before they can qualify for the surgery.

There are several reasons that Lou's doc probably recommended this to him (although they really should have just referred him to a weight loss clinic to start with):
1. his BMI is over 40 and has been for years (criteria is BMI 40 stand-alone or 35 with co-morbidities like diabetes)
2. bariatric surgery can put diabetes in remission
3. his lifestyle is not helping his size, so maybe...?

But as you pointed out, if Lou were to even undergo the surgery, he would be his own worst enemy in the matter. He wouldn't commit to the necessary changes, and would fuck it all up in the end.
 
I meant why is Lou so anti-WLS?
Quite simply, Lou views his morbid obesity and the type 2 diagnosis that came out of it as his proof that he is "disabled" and thus deserving of that sweet sweet gubmint cash AND all of the money he bilks out of morons on Twitter. Bariatric surgery frequently resolves comorbidities related to obesity...like type 2 diabetes. So WLS would put him at risk of losing his self-declared status as "disabled" and there's no way he's going to let that happen. On the subject of comorbidities, I'd bet $100 that diabetes isn't his only comorbidity. I guaranfuckingtee you that Lou has an severe case of sleep apnea that has gone undiagnosed.

Except Lou would be in no danger of being approved for WLS, unless he hopped down to Mexico and paid for it out of pocket. Any medical weight-loss program that he would end up enrolled in would require him to show adherence to the medically supervised diet that they would put him on (Lou would fail at this because he'd have to give up his pasta and nuggies), attend education session designed to make him understand how to make life-long changes to how he interacts with food (Lou would ragequit halfway through the first class), and they require you to lose 10-20% of your total body weight before they will even think about submitting to the insurance company to get approval for the surgery. If Lou managed to lose 50-100lbs, I'd would send him $1 for every pound he managed to lose. So, my money is safe.

Even if Lou wasn't ridiculously against WLS to save his fucking life, he wouldn't end up able to have the surgery because he would fail at every pre-req that the bariatric program would demand of him.

Lou will always be fat and no one will ever have sex with him.
 
I meant why is Lou so anti-WLS?
Because no one tells lou what to do. It's why he won't get a job.

He would need to get the chop first to prove to us he really is a wahman.
 
I've been giving it some thought and my conclusion is that he simply does not want his life to change. This answers a lot of things, and goes in line with our previous observations that he really is living his own dream.

Probably if he could push a button and be thin, he would but being thin and healthy is not worth the effort for him; they are really not required in his chosen lifestyle of tablets and nuggets in bed.

I guess it's really not stupid from his perspective to ignore his health. A life involving any less luxury and with any difficulty is not worth living to him.

Fyi lap bands are ineffective. There is a sleeve surgery where a huge part of the stomach is removed and a bypass where most of the stomach is removed and the rest is attached farther along the intestines I believe.
