In order to make more people eligible for this procedure there is like a point system also that can lead to the GB surgery.
I know at least one lady who wasn't morbidly obese but had enough "points" to allow her to have the surgery.
I believe the points are based around reported symptoms, for example trouble breathing during exertion.
Its also a way that non-morbidly obese women might be able to get their insurance to pay for basically cosmetic weight loss.
