Weightloss surgery , eligibility

Posted , 1 user is following.

hi I've been with the weightloss management team for almost a year, bmi is currently 42 , the eligibility is 40 , if I get referred for wls and I go on the liver reducing diet , what happens if I loose more weight and my bmi falls under 40? Will I still be able to have surgery?? as I would have already been referred at this point ?
