Tier 3 Low BMI

[Mandylyn67]

Hi
I am about to start Tier 3 next month - my BMI is around 40.8 (I am currently NOT going to the gym or swimming a I don't want my BMI to drop before I go....).

Has anyone done less than 12 months on Tier 3 with a low er BMI and no other medical issues?

Iv always been led to believe it's your bmi at referral that matters. I'm on tier 4 they gave me a target of losing 1 stone but said if I lost loads more they wouldn't say I didn't need the surgery but I could choose to opt out. They know we won't b able to keep the weight off long term without the surgery.
Gd luck

I concur with Kirsty and in my case they encouraged me to try and lose some weight whilst waiting for my sleeve. Xxx
