So why consider gastric bypass surgery? There are lots of reasons for people to give serious considerations to gastric bypass surgery. And I know people do not consider it lightly. It is quite invasive surgery.
For a start there is the actual loss of body weight that occurs after the surgery.It is claimed that the successful surgery lead to about a 40 to 50% loss of body weight a year after the procedure. There are other factors that lead a person to consider this surgery beyond weight loss, but related to weight loss when considering gastric bypass surgery. Other factors inlcude the associated medical conditions, and how this surgery can reduce the risks and implications of medical conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, cerebro vascular accidents, stroke, heart disease and even some forms of cancer.
