Wondering how many are on the lower end of BMI level, who still need to lose 50 lbs, I have yoyo dieted forever, and that 50 lbs has given me high blood pressure, let me know if your a lower end qualifying bmi'er, thanks Cheri

My BMI is around 37, and the only problem that I could say that I have is, fatty liver. I was approved in less then two weeks. I was shocked! My family doctor said that he would write a letter to the insurance company, but I didn't even need him to do that. I have United Healthcare. My surgery is scheduled for May 2nd, so only a few more days for me. I'm getting a little nervous now! Good luck to you!

I'm kinda jealous. My BMI is around 37 but since I had no major health issues like high blood pressure, sleep apnea, or CHD, my insurance Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey wouldn't cover me. I have no idea if I have a fatty liver or not. I'm getting the gastric sleeve on May 7th
