If considering weight loss surgery, New York residents should calculate their Body Mass Index (BMI) to see what your eligibility for different weight loss solutions might be. Severe or “morbid” obesity is a chronic condition that is difficult to treat through dietary modification and exercise alone. Classifications of obesity are defined by your BMI. You are considered obese if you have a BMI of 30 or more. Severe obesity is defined as having a BMI of more than 35. Morbid obesity constitutes a BMI of 40 or more. To determine if weight loss surgery is among the weight loss solutions appropriate for you, we use a BMI greater than 35.
