I was just going to ask this exact question, BMI 40.6, no comorbidities. Getting psych done on Tuesday, then ready for final ins approval & set surgery. Realistically that is probably a good 6 to 8 weeks out. I'm ready to start working-out and eating healthier now. After reading some comments, I'll hold off until surgery is scheduled.

A few more weeks is now big deal considering I'll be changing the rest of my life.

We are in exactly the same situation- same bmi same insurance. Today I had my third app. Weighed in at 39.5 and was not happy. At all. Doc and every one else was reassuring but there was too much' I can't imagine it'll be an issue' and " I think it'll be fine " for my comfort. First time in my life I wanted to be fatter or have comorbidities. How crazy is that?

Call insurance. In theory that's a great idea. I cannot find one blasted person that can or will give me an answer. It's really frustrating. Hopefully you have better success than me. I'm trying very hard to keep an " if it's meant to be it will be " attitude but its a challenge. We'll just have to stay positive together

I have a Fitbit and LOVE it! Other than tracking my activity, I use the food log. You can also input blood pressure/sugar numbers etc. Love the graphs!
