They never looked at my pre-op deit or asked for proof but I know they will cncel it if you liver has too much fat around it. Imagine waking up and finding out they did not do the procedure. Stick with the the diet the rest of the time, I know it is hard but you HAVE to be compliant ont his kind of stuff. Believe me, it gets worse before it gets better but it is completely worth it. I ate so much cream soup on my pre-op diet I never wanted to see soup again. THen the hunger wears you down and you dont even feel it anymore it is weird. I had about 8 weeks between finding out I was approved and being able to do the procedure so I ate and ate and ate during that time and gained 11 pounds. Then I lost all of that plus 4 more before my surgury. First appointment was 284, highest weight was 295, date of banding I was 279. Hang in there!!
