Gastric Bypass

Selene had gastic bypass (Roux en Y is the exact procedural name) three and a half years ago. She is a poster child for the success of the procedure. She went from 370 lbs to 165 lbs in less than a year. Her chronic high blood pressure disappeared within a month of the surgery. She never had diabetic issues, but her life improved in every possible way after the surgery.

Make sure they pick a surgeon with impeccable references from past patients, and that they follow the rules and learn the lifestyle changes. It is a well-developed and studied procedure at this point, very safe and effective.

Best of luck to everyone.
