Hi Starlet,

Although it was not 90 lbs, my doctor did want me to lose weight before the

surgery. He said that since he has put that condition on people wanting

surgery, the surgeries are coming out much more successful and with fewer

complications. What he told me was that when you start losing weight you

start losing it inside with your organs first and it makes the surgery

easier to preform and with less problems. He wanted me to lose 54 lbs, I

lost 46. I think it is also his way of making sure you are committed to

the surgery. That part of it didn't make much sense to me, because if we

could lose weight on our own and keep it off, we would have all done it

already.

Every Doctor is different, so you might want to see if there is another in

your area, or discuss this requirement with someone in his office.

Best of luck,
