Tell me if this makes any sense. Can I begin trying to lose some weight before

surgery, so that I will reach my expected weight for my height according to all those charts? My surgeon said that I will likely lose around 100 lbs, but that will put me at 193, which is pretty close to 200! Does this idea make any sense? Is this possible? I'm thinking if I can lose a little weight, say optomistically (not likely) 50 lbs, I'll be down to 250, and around a year after surgery I'll be able to get down to 150. Is this possible, or am I overlooking something... Has anyone done this? Thanks so much!
