I'm not from Texas but the best way to find out it to call the insurance directly.  There is usually a customer call number on your card. 

edited to add:  Good luck!

Each insurance company has different requirements so the best way to find out what the criteria you need to have for surgery is to call them. However, a majority of companies will approve a bmi of 40+ without the co-morbidities such as hypertension, sleep apnea, diabetes, etc.
