Actually before you even get approved for the surgery you have to go to nutrition classes and lose at least 5% of your body weight on your own. They do work with you to change how you eat and view food. My boyfriends sister went through all the steps but could not afford the nutrition classes that were $150 and they won't do the surgery until she does. Its been more than a year that she has put it off for lack of money.
