So I was approved for surgery for March. I was right at 40 bmi, and got sick and lost about 6-7 pounds. What do I do?!

So this drops you too low?

Usually once you are approved you are good to go, even if you loose a little weight. The office will know more if they have dealt with your insurance before

When I talked to the lady in the office she said do not lose any weight. So I'm so scared now.

Carb binge?

I've been doing that in hopes that that'll work. I feel disguising. Haha

lol.... I'm with you ha!

Do they not have you on a liver shrink diet prior to surgery? That would cause a loss.

Once approved you are good. I went below preop and no issue. Don't worry.

You are good once you are approved

I'm good now. About to start my liquid diet. Thanks everyone (:

Good Luck Mallory! Had my sleeve 1 year ago this month. BEST thing I ever did. Listen to your doctor, drink water, walk, take vitamins, eat protein and watch yourself getting healthy. Good Luck kiddo!

Thank you!
