I need to gain 10 lbs.

I need to gain 10 lbs to qualify for surgery. My insurance requires me to be 100 lbs overweight and right now I am only 90 lbs overweight. My doctor said he would operate on me, but my insurance won't pay. I really don't want to jeapordize my health and eat more to gain the weight. I was even thinking about wearing some sort of ankle/arm weights to my appointment so I can "gain" that weight that insurance wants UGH. Has anyone ever done something like this? IF my insurance found out would that be considered insurance fraud? Any suggestions or comments? Thank you :)
