Abstract Background Obesity increases the risks and complexity of laparoscopic surgeries. Preoperative very low‐calorie diets (VLCDs) can demonstrate significant preoperative weight loss. However, the optimal VLCD duration remains unclear. Excessive loss of muscle mass associated with VLCDs may elevate surgical and postoperative risks. This study aimed
