I did last week. I wanted one. I didn't want any chances for nicking the liver

My surgeon didn't require one; only clear liquids the day before surgery.

Mine required the same 2 week liquid and shake diet I had to do when banded.

Prior to my revision, I had to do a 2 week liquid diet. It also was a nice jump start to starting weight loss, too.

i am doing two weeks of optifast shakes and 2 cups of green veggies. it is the longest two weeks of my life! in Australia most surgeons insist on it to shrink liver. many have been opened up only to be closed again for not competing diet and still have to pay for surgery
