I'm meeting my surgeon in the morning, and I weigh 209 pounds...

Well without any reference to your height etc 94 kg isn't much to go on as I know healthy people at 6 ft who weigh 95.

Each surgeon has their own check list on this. I was 230# on the day of surgery, and did have to pay a weight penalty since it took a bit longer, but I was well below my surgeons MAX WEIGHT threshold. If I had been your weight, I would have been fine and no extra $$$$. You will probably also have some time to wait, and use it well and learn new recipes for vegetables that will help you lose the weight.

Good luck, sweetie.
I was around 210 when I had surgery, and no problems (or questions) whatsoever. Like Vicki, I was well below the surgeon's max weight. I recovered nicely, too. :) You'll do fine.
