    Hun, I don’t understand all the bmi and stuff, but what are u worried about? X

    Well, I’m obese atm..5’3 and 14 stone. I’m working on losing weight before my surgery, I want to lose 2 stone. But at 12 stone and 5’3 I’m happy with myself (yes totally) but my BMI will still be 25+ so, technically, overweight.

    I’m worried that I might not be able to have surgery if I’m overweight. I’m perfectly healthy, but just too heavy. I just hope I can have surgery when I’m 12 stone. :(

    When I was younger my doc told me I needed to get to bmi 30 or less in order to be considered for breast reduction. So I believe anything below 30 is safe. Good for you lass, wot surgery will you be having? Xx

    Hi xbubblebutt

    For safety reasons, under general anaesthetic MYA request for a patient’s BMI to be less than 30. Suitability for any procedure will be based on an assessment of your medical history, expectations and the recommendations of your surgeon.

    Please let me know if you would like to discuss this further and I can ask someone to give you a call.

    Hun, I’m over weight, I’m a size 16, 5ft9″, I had my BA 2 wks ago. I did have to have my blood pressure taken regularly as it was high but to be honest it’s always been high plus trying to find the holburn and upper wimpole clinic with two kids and a hubby that thinks he knows it all……of course m blood pressure is gonna be bloody high!!

    I also went to the docs for an ECG and spoke to the nurse and doc there. They sent the ECG off to MYA. To be honest I am healthy, don’t smoke, do a little exercise (but not as much as my friends) but its all I can fit in at the mo til my little boy is at school full days. But al least it’s something rather than nothing. I do like a glass of wine with dinner of a wk end, but who doesn’t!

    Plus working and being the usual housewife, I do as much or as little as I can.

    MYA r only covering there backs and looking out for us.

    I’m sure everything will be fine for u as I’m more overweight than u. I don’t know what BMI I have! X
