I only need to add 25 pounds to reach my BMI of 40 and I will be totally approved by my insurance. I'm only geting bigger and bigger each year and I want the surgery. Does anyone have any tips to "add" on the weight (and I dont mean gaining it). I found an 8 pound outfit I can wear for weigh in, but I still need to come up with at least 20-25 extra pounds and I only have 3 weeks. I know there has to be some ways to wear it on please help me!!!!!!!

Also do they round up or down on height? I am 5' 41/2 , will they use 5'4" or 5'3" ??

explained my question better

I didnt say I wanted to gain all the 25 pounds. I was just hoping maybe clothes etc. might add on some extra weight for me. I dont have $15,000 to pay for my own surgery so I need to be at a 40 BMI. I'm sick of being fat!!!!

I understand being sick of being fat. I paid $7,000 for my surgery because I didn't want the wait for insurance to make me jump through hoops. I too couldn't afford the price but I figured I couldn't afford not to! Charge it! That's what I did.

Good luck to you!
