Gastric bypass surgery can provide dramatic weight loss for seriously overweight men and women, but should be carefully considered including any potential side effects.

Gastric bypass surgery is not for everyone who is overweight. Speak with your doctors, review all of your options, and, if you decide to proceed, be sure to review the credentials of any potential surgeon carefully before undergoing a procedure.
Surgery - the gastric bypass procedure
Gastric Bypass - It wasn't easy, but it's working for this woman
On 11 September 2006, we received the following story from B.B. of Staten Island, NY:

"So I wanted to share that I had a gastric bypass in August 2005. This was the greatest thing I could have ever done!!

While I still have a way to go as far as losing weight, I went from a size 24 to a size 10.  I once weighed 269 pounds, and now I am 150 pounds. Life is wonderful!!

I think anyone who wants to do this should. However, think long and hard because this isn't the easy way out that everyone seems to think it is.

Thought I'd share."

Thank you B.B. for sharing your story.
