How do I get a surgeon to accept me with a lower BMI?

My BMI is 35 I have high cholesterol. I am taking medicaiton for depression and now I have found out that there is a good chance that I have sleep apnea (I am researching that today). I have tried everything and am ready to change my life forever. If I gained 3-5 lbs, I would qualify for surgery. I don't think my insurance comp. will be a problem.
