Losing weight

I need to renew my Class 1 as I'm about to start training for ATPL shortly but am concerned about my BMI of 32.

At the initial I had managed to shed some weight and had a BMI of 28-29 and they didn't bat an eyelid. Should I hold off doing my renewal until I am able to shed a stone or so or should I just get on and do it?

I am trying to lose weight, indeed I have fought a weight problem since I developed an underactive thyroid 7 years ago which I take Levothyroxine for. Despite the medication I now put on weight really easily and struggle to lose it - previously I was 6ft 2 and a lanky 14 stone, sadly 14 stone is now but a distant memory!
