Has anyone had a nutrtionist cause surgery to be denied?

I am in the process of finding out if i qualify. my surgeon requires me to see his nutritionist (a waste of money that that could have been spent on hospital co-pay!!LOL!) and she told me she has "concerns" about my compliance abilities post-op. now i am not sure if the decision for approval by the surgeon to recommend surgery will be influenced by her.... but she is concerned because i was bulimic in high school (literally 20 years ago) and that i might go back to it. note that i vomited every day for 5 months with my daughter pregnancy and entire 9.5 months with son pregnancy so therefore not at all interested in inducing it either by over eating or other means post op. just worred that she will influence my surgeon to deny my surgery.
