Remember when I said it was déjà vu all over again? Here's the first time I saw it (I started reading this thread about a year or so ago).

I recommend reading a few posts starting with the one I linked. There are a few gems in there, including a small clip of Amber dancing.

This post is also very interesting. Note that the Q&A happened one year prior to the capture.

If you read a few posts after the ones I linked you'll see that less than a year ago many people here already believed she was over 500lb.

soon enough she's going to be a bezerk 600 lb, screaming, crying, lunatic. She has way too many emotional and mental problems and zero self control.

Just FYI. Because I have nothing better to do.. she said she couldn't afford weightloss surgery. If she just stopped Texas Roadhouse: 40 bucks a trip. 3 times a week. 120 bucks. Times 4 weeks 480 bucks, average cost of surgery is 23,000 it would take her 3.99 years. If she just stopped that one thing.

'Fraid not. She's eaten herself well past the basic gastric surgery option. Most bariatric teams have a 350-400lb threshold because the danger isn't justified by the results - we see Doc Now and think that's the norm but not only is he a maverick, but his anaesthetist is the true unsung hero. Deathfats almost always have sleep apnoea and under anaesthetic it's bloody hard to get them breathing again and even harder to get through all the flab if something like a tracheotomy is needed. For a very low long-term success rate the risk assessment just has "lmfao" written all over it.

AL would need specialist surgery with all that it entails, including dieticians, physios and mental health therapy, and follow-up surgeries to remove skin, fix blown out knees and hips etc etc. The $20k option got left behind several visits from the Binge Monster ago.

Ps. And now I have a mental image of a resus team trying to bring our goorl back to breathing. There'd be medics boinging off the Big Al Bouncy Trampoline all over the shop.

Her surgical team would absolutely want to diet her (liquid only VLC diet) for a prolonged period before operating. Mostly to reduce the anaesthetic risk, but also to confirm the patient can stick to the liquids only diet for long enough to let the surgery heal. Full gastric bypass is a big fucking internal replumbing and eating - let alone binging - before it heals will put the patient back in the hospital with either infection or worse, detachment at the surgical sites. The last will kill you.

The skin if she hit less than 200lbs would be a lost cause; she would need arms and legs done plus an apronectomy. She might want other stuff done cosmetically (eg breasts, chin and neck lift) but limbs and apron should vastly reduce her risk of really bad skin infections and possible necrosis. None of that is cheap and all of it is a long painful recovery.

She’s young enough still that she is unlikely to die with the knees she has, but losing say 300 to 350 pounds would mean she could manage with the ones she has for much longer than she thinks. Likewise hips. Knees need redone about every decade, so its important to struggle on with the factory fitted ones as long as possible.

Surgery is still her only option for significant long term weight reduction.
 
She doesn't have the willpower to lose for surgery or maintain a diet afterwards. I bet she knows if she gets it she will die, not that she'd ever admit that to us or her ambabies.

Here’s the thing: she has gone through this whole rigamarole before. She made a video last year, talking at length about why she wanted to stop sharing her weight loss journey on YouTube. And then she came back. Her patterns are just going to continue.

Also, Chantal made a video in which she mentioned taking an extended YouTube break. Her caption was very manipulative and said something like “if you guys don’t like me then what’s the point of even being here!”, but the video she was fake-nice. I wonder if Amber really IS trying to do what Chantal does. It seems like Chantal’s channel is growing faster.

Who knows.

Didn't Amber start one of her vlogs recently with Chantal's obnoxious "hey guys hey guys hey guys hey" schtick? I smell a fatspiracy.

Better stop watching now then. Because neither of those things are going to happen.

Hey now. I still hold out the hope for her to vlog herself crashing DoubleD’s wedding or doing something similarly exceptional. I don’t care what she eats in a day because I can already guess (Chinese buffet, Texas Roadhouse, Mexican + 2 aygs 2 bakeen in the morning - which is actually 3 pm + a bag of family size chips and ice cream + ramen and a chocolate bar or five). I don’t care about her hobbling around the house for Fitbit steps. I don’t even care about her daily board games with the shady gays.
I just want her to do something hilarious instead of being a literal sad sack in her dirty bathroom while acting like she’s going to do something meaningful for herself.

Most people only know of dr now's protocols, but there are some seriously unethical surgeons out there. Not all of them require weight loss beforehand, most don't require therapy outside of a single screening designed to reduce liability. Medical doctors of any sort can learn WLS techniques from a weekend seminar and start getting paid. A lot of plastic surgeons do this, too. With weight loss surgery it is much harder to get in trouble because the deaths can more easily be attributed to obesity than the surgery.
