Gastric bypass surgery is the surgical process in which the stomach is reduced in size through stapling and allowing food to bypass some, if not all, of the small intestine. The reduction of the size of the stomach will lead to a feeling of fullness more quickly during meals than normal. This will lead to a more rapid form of weight loss due to the fewer amounts of meals and snacks being consumed on a daily basis. The bypass of the small intestine also contributes to the advanced weight loss based on fewer calories being absorbed into the body through the organ.
