Somewhere sometime ago I have seen a document which suggests that if your BMI was over 35 you should have a functional assessment with a CFI.

Never heard of anyone having one done.

Height and weight are part of the medical examination but that's it.

High BMI puts you at risk of diabetes, heart disease, strokes, various cancers etc. Worth doing something about it. Not easy, I know.
