Am I a Candidate?

Morbid obesity can be a fatal disease that effects your health, life span, and quality of life. If you are 100 pounds above your ideal body weight, you may be suffering from morbid obesity. A common measure of obesity is Body Mass Index (BMI). Your BMI, especially when accompanied by one or more co-morbid conditions, is important to consider when finding treatment. The National Institute of Health’s guidelines for bariatric surgery are:

OBESITY CLASS BMI (Kg/m2 )

Underweight <18.5
Normal 18.5-24.9
Overweight 25.0-29.9
Obese I 30.0-39.9
Morbid Obesity 40.0-49.0
Super Obese 50.0-59.0
Super, Super Obese 60.0 and above
