Answering the question "Am I Morbidly Obese?" may give you the courage you need to take the first step towards gastric bypass surgery. Below, we've included a BMI Calculator and an Ideal Body Weight Chart you can use to determine if you are morbidly obese. (However, BMI is only one of many factors we consider when determining whether or not a patient is a good candidate for weight loss surgery.)

You may be a good candidate for surgery if:

You are 100 pounds or more over your healthy (ideal) body weight
You have a BMI of 40 or more
You have a BMI of 35 or more and have serious health problems, such as diabetes or heart disease, that are caused by your excess weight
