Gastric Bypass Surgery

Gastric Bypass Surgery

Gastric bypass surgery is a type of bariatric, or weight loss, surgery that reduces the stomach. It changes how the stomach and intestine digest food and helps weight-loss by reducing, limiting nutrient absorption, limiting the amount of calories your body absorbs, and contributing to appetite suppression. At Reyap Hospital we understand that obesity is not simply a weight problem, but a chronic condition affecting your entire body. Our team of experts offers award-winning care and the support you need to successfully manage and overcome obesity and its related health problems.

  • The treatment provides excellent resolution of obesity-related health problems.
  • The risk of getting a Type II Diabetes is usually reduced with the amount of weight loss that can be achieved after a gastric bypass operation.

F.A.Q

  • How will I know when to stop losing weight?
Your body knows how much weight it needs to lose. As long as you stick to your nutrition and exercise program, your body will adjust to the weight loss and stabilize at its appropriate weight.
  • Is it possible to regain my weight?
Remember, your gastric bypass is only a tool. It is not a cure for obesity. Snacking, drinking with meals, drinking caffeinated and carbonated beverages, not drinking enough water etc. are common behaviors that may cause you to regain your weight.
  • What can I expect after gastric bypass surgery?
For the first month, you will only be able to handle small amounts of soft food and liquids. But gradually, you will be able to add solid foods back into your diet. You will notice feeling full very quickly – after eating about two tablespoons of food.
  • What do I do about excess skin after weight loss?
Most people can minimize excess skin by maintaining healthy nutrition, aerobic exercise and weight training. But if you need to have excess skin removed, we can help you consult with a plastic surgeon.
  • How do I know if I am successful with my weight loss?
Remember, success is not getting to your goal weight; it is getting to a “healthy” weight. If you have achieved a weight within approximately 40 pounds of your ideal body weight and maintain your weight, you are considered a success.
