Just think, a year and a half ago she was told it would take two years for her to be approved for wls, so if she had stuck it out she would be ready by this summer for it. This is her fifth time I believe seeing a different wl clinic and not being approved. For someone with such a high IQ you would think she would learn by now.
I think we all knew she wasn't getting approved. It's actually hysterical to me that she spent so many years trying to get diagnosed with binge eating and then the last few months trying to hide she was diagnosed with it, and then that be the reason she got denied. Wonder what the supportive French think of her now?
I love so much that it was her claims of BED (for years) that finally bit her in the butt. She managed to hide it from the phych assessment Dr and managed to get approval from them, which shocked the hell out of me.
What brought her down was that she couldn't keep her weight down for the second dietician appt & she
gained weight before that appointment. I would love to have seen her try to justify the weight gain to the dietician - "it's my lympodema (fake dema word combining lymphedema & lipoedema)", "It's water weight, I swell in the car," "It's poop weight gain,, I'm consipated," "Your scale is off"etc., lol. She had literally had no way to justify it, as
@I call shenanigans said that even a one pound weight gain would delay her wls surgery.
I think that she gained much more than just one pound. Her face looked noticeably fatter in that recent "plateau" video. Those dieticians have heard every excuse in the book & Amber finally had to admit to at least one binge or in her words "she overate." She couldn't blame her food addiction or her BED so she was painted into a corner of her own making & forced to tell the truth. This is probably the first time Amber has been held accountable for her weight gain & I'm sure it killed her & she HATES/blames that dietician. lmao. Not to mention that she did this ("I did that!") to herself - by lying to the drs & shrinks (about BED & food addiction) thinking that she could outsmart them AND by eating like a pig before her next dietician/weigh in. And she couldn't delay the appt bc it would be counted as a gain.
In conclusion, she has to be humiliated and mad & let down & thinking "I was almost there, I had it (approval for wls) & lost it." She was no where close to final approval & I hope that it is killing her. So now what is she going to do for content:? I guess it's back to the cycle or she is going to dr shop for another wls surgeon that she hopes she can outsmart. At any rate there is no way she will get wls surgery from this dr bc she won't be able to not binge and she will refuse to do the mental work (muh mentals!) needed to succeed. Sucks to be Amber right now. LOLOL
