Body mass index (BMI) is a calculation based on height and weight that correlates with the amount of body fat. For patient safety, Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center requires a BMI less than 35 prior to surgery. A BMI of 24.5 is normal. Feel free to call or email us if you have additional questions. Looking forward to meeting you at the end of January!

What is normal weight and BMI?

I am scheduled to have my surgery on Jan. 27th. I currently weigh 143 and my BMI is 24.5.

After reading the boards wasn't sure if I am within the acceptable weight and BMI range for surgery. I am planning on trying to lose some weight in the next 3 weeks by eating smaller, and healthier portions.
