Weight Gain

Has anyone gained weight before starting their pre-op diet?

Were you still approved?

I think it depends on the doctor and how much weight you have to lose. I think it really depends on your preop physical too and your health in general. My brother totally blew his preop diet when getting the lap band but he was still approved. Funny thing was he did awesome banded and was like their poster boy for weight loss. I've personally gained probably about five pounds but I can lose that in a few days on a liquid fast. Good luck!

Yes I came three pounds one month before my surgery and I was frantic but my doctor told me not to worry I still get my surgery on March 28th
