How does Gastric Bypass work?
It’s the reduction of your portion sizes and the lessened calorie absorption that leads to weight loss, not the procedure in and of itself. Thanks to your much smaller stomach, you must eat restricted portions following gastric bypass. However, you will not feel hungry after eating those small portions like you would with your stomach the size it is now. Plus, the calories contained in the foods that you eat aren’t absorbed as well by your system due to the intestinal bypass, further reducing total calories taken in.
