Weight Gain after Gastric Bypass

Gastric Bypass is a powerful tool that can help you achieve near ideal body weight BUT in order to achieve that goal one must eat well. A patient that gains weight over time after surgery is related to the same nurtionally bad habits that originally led to significant weight gain. Therefore it is important in the inmediate post -operative period to develop a good game plan and establish healthy eating habits that will carry you for the rest of your life. It is uncommon for weight gain to be realted to anatomic reason (ie surgery), although one should consult with your bariatric surgeon.
