I am 50 lbs overweight why do I not qualify for stapling?

My Dr refuses to help me get this done as he doesn't believe this is the answer. I have other medical problems that are exacerbated by being overweight. I am 50 years old. I'm not overly obese but I do know I would feel better physically & emotionally. I have BCBS insurance but unless a Dr were willing to write to the ins. co & word it correctly they would never grant permission. I have hit dead ends everywhere. I don't have the funds to pay for it myself so I guess I'm stuck. Anyone have any ideas on how to write a letter of request?
