BMI 40.5 down from 50.6. I've lost 20% of my starting body mass. Goal is 112 lbs away. Half of both my closet and dresser have been cleared of clothes that no longer fit. I need to go shopping.
That is great. Is there a reason they want you to slow it down? Nice to get a couple of new duds for where you are now to see how you look. Besides you deserve it.
If I was certain that they weren't going to retest me for apnea and would accept my 17 month old test results indicating so I wouldn't worry about. But 40 BMI is the cutoff for being a surgical candidate without additional factors (apnea, diabetes, etc). I'm about three pounds from that.
