Gastric bypass surgery is a serious option to consider when a person needs to lose a lot of weight. Some, however, do not meet the criteria to have a gastric bypass. There are weight and body mass restrictions, and also psychological guidelines that must be met before a person can be approved to have this surgery. One option to try before going under the knife is employing the same post-surgery diet without having the surgery.
Diabetes affects your options for weight loss as well as surgery. Consider your own health as well as whether your doctor recommends the gastric bypass surgery. You can obtain information about the way these two medical conditions interact online or from your physician.
There is nothing online that says that you cannot have gastric bypass surgery if you have diabetes, and point of fact, because you already have a limited diet, this surgery may be easier on you than for others, but the surest bet is to ask you doctor about anything that concerns your body.
