my BMI went under :(

so I am nervous, When I went to the seminar my BMI was 40.2, today I went to my PCP for my first weigh in for the 6 onth diet and I lost 2 pounds somehow. Now my BMI is 39.8. Is this going to make me uninsurable? Im so scared, can I gain weight for the next weighin? I heard if U gain the insurance will turn u down also.

Did the doctor or staff weigh you at the seminar? My experience is the weight used by the insurnace is that from your first consult at the surgeons office. Also if you go in for another weight have on heavy clothes and eat before you go. I had my first post op meeting with the doctor yesterday. I wanted to compare our scales. I weighed myself and then held the protein shake I was going to have for breakfast. It added 1 pound to my weight.
