As a prominent weight loss procedure Gastric bypass surgery makes the stomach smaller and allows food to bypass part of the small intestine. You will feel full more quickly than when your stomach was its original size, which reduces the amount of food you eat and thus the calories that are consumed. Bypassing part of the intestine also results in fewer calories being absorbed. This leads to weight loss.  In a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, the stomach is made smaller by creating a small pouch at the top of the stomach using surgical staples or a plastic band. The smaller stomach is connected directly to the middle portion of the small intestine (jejunum), bypassing the rest of the stomach and the upper portion of the small intestine (duodenum). This procedure can be done by making a large incision in the abdomen by making a small incision and using small instruments and a camera to guide the surgery The recovery period of gastric bypass surgery usually involves a 4- to 6-day hospital stay and the patient can return to their normal activities within 3 to 5 weeks. Medical experts say that most patients getting gastric bypass surgery quickly begin to lose weight and continue to lose weight for up to 12 months.
