I no longer qualify for weight loss surgery
Feb 14, 2010
Seven weeks of running and feeling great!Another week with only a one pound loss but I don't care because the feeling of running almost two miles at a time makes me feel incredibly accomplished at the end of each session and that one pound met another goal. Here is the chart...
Range | Meaning |
---|---|
less than 18.5 | Underweight |
18.5 - 24.9 | Normal |
25.0 - 29.9 | Overweight |
30.0 - 39.9 | Obese |
40.0 - 50 | Extremely Obese |
over 50 | Super Obese |
Good thing the surgery is already done with...
I started my journey near and possibly over 60 bmi which is Super Super Obese as I was dieting three weeks before I got a scale. With a BMI of 39.9 I am only obese instead of the required extremely obese of 40.0 With no comorbidities I no longer meet the requirements for my insurance company to cover my surgery.
I would need two co-morbidities to qualify which thanks to weight loss I no longer have.
Overweight here I come...
Sleeves rock.
