I was 52%, down to 33% now I think. I think surgeons don't just take BMI into account. Also other medical issues, that is why you will see both high BMI and lower BMI patients.
Good luck

Last time I was in the hospital a guy weighing 280kgs was sleeved. In and out with no issues after two nights!

Mine was 69 or 70 and while my surgeon did tell me I was too big, he still did the surgery and I came through just fine.
