Yayyyyy the "shorties club" lol how much do you weigh?

I'm 256 and so ready to get this weight off of me. My nutritionist suggested I set my goal at 125lbs because of my height but I can't imagine being that small. If I get down to 140 I'd be over the moon!

See I'm literally at the border line at 200 lbs. Nurse said do not lose anything until my consult lol first time in my life I'm trying to keep weight on! I would love to be 140 that's my ideal though I know the bmi wants us at 125 lol can't see myself 125 either lol

Im sure you will get approved, they office knows how to deal with the insurance so leave it in their hands. I have the same thyroid condition and that lead me to diabetes, I was getting worse and even my kidneys were taking a toll. I had my surgery 2/11 and I am down 18lbs. Be positive, everything will work out. Best of luck!!!

Thank you, I'm super nervous about my consult and I'm scale obsessed to make sure I don't lose a pound. People around say "o you're not fat just chunky!" Excuse me but to me it's the same thing. 4'11 and 200 lbs size 16/18 bottoms and xl/1x tops is nowhere near my ideal. Just tapping my feet doing my consultation count down :-)

Keep in mind that they will use your BMI to determine if you are eligible. Uf you are 35 or over you should be good

I thought if you were not at least 40+ BMI then you had to have at least one comorbidity for lower BMI?
