Jim--I agree with Carl and Ed. Go ahead and schedule your maze and start losing the weight right away. I wouldn't delay the surgery because it will rid you of the AFib which is such a stumbling block to exercising!
I was about 30 pounds over weight and I think my loss of appetite after surger may have helped start a weight loss for me (cross my fingers). But I also gained about 10 pounds the two weeks after I started Rythmol so I was also anxious to get off the darn thing!
