🍽️ Gastric Bypass Surgery (Roux-en-Y)

A Powerful Tool for Lasting Weight Loss and Better Health

🧠 What is Gastric Bypass Surgery?

Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y) is a type of bariatric (weight loss) surgery that helps you lose weight by changing how your stomach and small intestine handle food. It combines both restrictive and malabsorptive techniques:

✔️ A small stomach pouch is created to limit how much you eat
✔️ A part of the small intestine is bypassed to reduce calorie absorption

It’s one of the most common and effective procedures for treating severe obesity and its related health conditions.

✔️ Ideal Candidates for Gastric Bypass

✔️ BMI ≥ 40 (severe obesity)
✔️ BMI ≥ 35 with obesity-related health issues (e.g., diabetes, hypertension)
✔️ Failed previous non-surgical weight loss attempts
✔️ Ready to commit to long-term lifestyle changes

 

🏥 How the Procedure Works

✔️ Surgeon creates a small stomach pouch (about the size of an egg)
✔️ The rest of the stomach is bypassed
✔️ A section of the small intestine is connected to the pouch
✔️ Food now bypasses most of the stomach and part of the small intestine
✔️ This reduces both food intake and calorie absorption
