Why don’t people just keep losing weight?
Everyone who has gastric bypass surgery has a strong genetic capacity to use calories efficiently. So it is always possible to provide high calorie foods and induce weight gain. In practice what happens is that with time people are able to eat more at a time, they lose weight and require fewer calories just to move around and their metabolism becomes even more efficient that it was preoperatively so the weight stabilizes after one or two years.
