Undergoing surgery is a huge mental decision that a patient & his family takes.
Well, it's not just mental, it involves enormous physiological (physical) implications as well. One is not aware until you go much deeper.
One should be aware of their nutritional status before deciding the date of surgery.
The post-surgery outcome/recovery depends largely on your nutritional status pre-surgery.
Nutritional status categorizes you into 2 board spectrums: Obese/Overweight or Underweight. Both the spectrums are extreme and needs to be worked on before undergoing any surgery.
Being obese/overweight or underweight does not rely on your appearance & weight. Its beyond weight. Its about what your body is composed of.
Our bodies are made of 4 parts: Muscles, Minerals, Water & Fat.
The proposition of these 4 parts in our body determines our nutritional status.

7 to 14 days vigorous counselling of nutrition before surgery will pay you benefits in many ways, by reducing your complications, reducing hospital stay and many more.
Myths About Diet Post-Surgery
Many myths like, avoiding rice, potato, fish, eggs etc, doesn't allow to heal the stitches is extremely untrue.
There are no foods that hinder the healing process. Healing depends largely on your condition before surgery, your food intake post-surgery.
Proteins and various other nutrients are crux of faster recovery.
Different surgeries have different nutritional requirement. Similarly different individuals have individualized nutritional requirement. One diet chart doesn't fit all.
