I 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.

My experience (did not do an insurance required supervised diet) was that they used the first weight in. My surgeon requires that you loose a percentage of body weight for me it was 30 pounds. My surgery had to be postponed and they had to resubmit to my insurance. They approved it almost immediately even though I had lost about 40 pounds by that time.
