Gastric Bypass Surgery for Obesity

Many obesity experts consider the Gastric Bypass Surgery to be the "Gold Standard" of modern obesity surgery the benchmark to which other bariatric operations are compared.

The gastric bypass operation achieves its effects on weight loss by creating a very small stomach, from which the rest of the stomach is divided and separated. The small intestine is "attached" to the new stomach, allowing the lower pan of the stomach to be bypassed.

Following surgery, there is little interference with normal absorption of food. The operation restricts food intake and reduces the feeling of hunger. The result is an early sense of "fullness" followed by a sense of satisfaction followed by the elation of losing weight.

Gastric Bypass is an excellent tool for achieving longterm control of morbid obesity (the state of being 100 or more pounds over ideal body weight). Weight loss of 80-100% is achievable by most patients, as internal and external outcome studies demonstrate. And maintenance of that weight loss is likely with adherence to a straight forward behavior regimen. For those patients that are serious about losing weight, the gastric bypass surgery is definately worth looking into.
