It doesn't surprise me. I've lost over 100 lbs and am very close to there bmi cut. Given I can barely walk I lost weight the only way I know how cutting my calorie in take to 1000 per day. Did I lose muscle of course and good because they have no cut-off for how healthy a patient is only a cut-off of a weight to height ratio. If they let me have the surgery next week, I'd just cut weight like a wrestler by dehydrating myself. You see when somebody is in pain they'll do anything to make it stop.
Wow, now I’m worried about trying to lose weight. I’m having knee replacement surgery with you this summer and I was planning to lose weight as I know it was a contributing factor to my knee issue.
