About this Procedure
Gastric bypass is weight loss (bariatric) surgery that changes how the stomach and small intestine handle food. The NHS explains that the stomach is divided with staples to create a small pouch at the top, which is then attached to a lower part of the small intestine. Food passes from the pouch directly to the lower small intestine, so you feel full sooner and absorb fewer calories.
Weight loss surgery may be considered for people with a high body mass index (BMI) who have not been able to lose enough weight through diet, exercise and medicines, especially when they have conditions that could improve with weight loss, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnoea or joint problems. The NHS notes that people of South Asian, Middle Eastern, Black African and some other backgrounds may be considered at a lower BMI. Surgery is not a quick fix and requires lifelong changes to eating and activity.
Gastric bypass is done by keyhole surgery under general anaesthetic. MedlinePlus says the surgery takes about 2 to 4 hours and most people stay in hospital for 1 to 4 days. You follow a staged diet, from fluids to puréed and soft foods, over several weeks, and the NHS says you can start returning to normal activities after 4 to 6 weeks. Regular follow-up and vitamin and mineral checks are needed for life.
