did your surgeon give you a specific amount of weight to lose? if she/he didn't, then you're probably ok. my surgeon made me sign a contract that i would lose a specific amt of weight (20 lbs...high bmi), and told me that if i didn't lose it, my surgery would be postponed. even with some cheating, i made it.
