      My Dr. didnt ask me to lose weight prior to the surgery. Not even pre-op diet, but every doctor is different.

      I went for my first appointment one day, he ordered blood tests, xray, etc. And went back to his office the following week. I scheduled the surgery for 3 weeks after that because of work.

      Yes they will give you pain meds, and you'll feel ok once they kick in. Just make sure you take them as your doctor advises you to, I tried to be brave and go without the pain meds but I now realize how unnecessary that was :)

      I guess me losing before surgery is the insurance I have,which is crazy,I mean I'm glad to get the surgery,but if I was able to lose weight then I wouldn't need surgery,I've lost once last year only cause of chemo,but then put it back on and then some.
