Help -- I need this procedure badly And I don't know where to turn. I live in Edmonton Alberta. I would like to find a place to do the surgery as close to home as possible, but looking for a decent price also. a winnipeg manitoba clinic said I was not heavy enough (BMI of 33.5 :biggrin:.) I feel heavy -- I look heavy -- and my clothes are huge, shouldn't that be enough ? Any ideas ?

Most insurance requires a BMI of 40 (with no co-morbidities) and a BMI of 37 with 2 or more co-morbidities. If you are self-pay, you can probably find somebody to operate on you but you'll have to search.
