I am half way through the 6 month weigh in for insurance purposes (I have Empire Plan). My BMI is right on the borderline of 40. At the last weigh in I dipped below the 40 BMI to 38.3. (I don't have any co-morbidities.. yet!) I was taking a super strong antibiotic for a sinus infection which wreaked havoc on my stomach, making it impossible to eat or stay out of the bathroom. I am more than positive the weight loss was purely Water because after weighing myself later that same day the scale was up the 9 lbs. I am so scared the insurance won't cover the surgery now. I have an appointment with the surgeon in April to discuss a plan of action, but I was just wondering if anyone else had the same issue and what the outcome was..
