Any suggestions for keeping weight up pre-op?

I know this sounds crazy, but with a BMI of 41 I am nervous about losing weight before surgery and being denied at the last minute. I know that happened to someone; I read it on this board. I am awaiting insurance approval, but my dr. gave me a list fo things to do while waiting, like walking daily, starting to eat more protein, etc. I want to be compliant and make things go easier after surgery, but I don't want to lose weight and blow the whole deal. I really need this surgery! Now that I have made the decision I just want to get started with everything. Anyone have any advice for me? My doctor is Rose Mary Jones in Indianapolis. Thanks, Ann
