Would understating your weight by 35 pounds be grounds for firing you from a desk job?
No, but it would be grounds for either raising the rate for insurance coverage, or refusing coverage altogether. These rates are very strictly calculated. It's all about calculating the risk for that particular person. An overweight person has a higher risk than an average-weight person.

We sell our insurance in person so that eliminates the issue of missing something obvious like obesity.
