Like many things this is probably something that varies from program to program. Some doctor's may require that and others may not.

I didn't, but I wasn't supposed to gain either. This is something your surgeon has to decide. The more you weigh, the higher the risk of surgery. Some surgeon's have a maximum weight that they feel comfortable with. Some facilities have a maximum weight for their equipment. I am sure there are many variables that go into your surgeon's decision on whether or not to require weight loss.
