High BMI and weight gain

My surgery is scheduled for September 20th. Between the time I seen the surgeon and now (three months later) I gained 16 lbs. and my BMI went up to 54. has anyone ever had surgery with that high of BMI. Surgeon did not like it at all. Please let me know. It worrys me.

My BMI is 54 and I will be in surgery in the morning at 6:30. MD states it is no problem. I also gained about 20 pounds from the time I began my quest until now. Best of luck and do not worry. God watches over all of us. S. Bumgardner

Hope your surgery goes well. Let me know please!

My BMI is over 60 and I'm having my open RNY on the 21st.

My BMI is now just under 60 and I'm having Lap on Sept. 21.

My BMI prior to surgery was 64. I had lap RNY on 09/07/04 and so far no complications. My surgeon did put me on a diet prior to surgery, but I wound up getting sick and having to take prednisone, so I gained weight. I still had my surgery. God Bless and God Speed on you surgery. Cindy

HI !!! My BMI is 54, it was 58! I have been trying to loose per my Doctors' request, but since all my tests came back really well there is no problem. I heard they rather have it under 50, but that is unlikely. I did a huge amount of walking , that helped I think. My date is the 22nd. Good Luck to you! ****HugS***
