After Gastric Bypass Weight Gain?
After gastric bypass weight gain can be attributed to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, bad eating habits, low self esteem, and surgical complications. One study of post gastric bypass patients has shown that an increase in the diameter of the gastrojejunal stoma, which is the opening from the stomach to the intestine, can be the culprit for the weight gain. When this dilation occurs, the stomach pouch empties too quickly; this in turn, allows the patient to eat more food. Studies are being conducted on ways to avoid this post surgical complication.
