Frequently Asked Questions About Gastric Bypass

?Gastric bypass is a surgery that helps a person lose weight by changing the way a patient's food is handled by the stomach and small intestine. It makes surgical changes to your stomach and digestive system that limits how much food you can eat and how much calories your body will absorb leading to weight loss. The body won't get all the calories from the food we eat because of this. By making this change one can control the amount of food and nutrients that are absorbed by the patient. And the top Gastric Bypass Surgery is available in India.

Gastric bypass and other surgeries for weight loss are major procedures that change a life. One can go for this best gastric bypass surgery in India as it is quite cost-effective when compared to other countries.

While weight loss surgery can help to reduce your risk of weight-related health problems, such as diabetes type 2, high blood pressure, heart disease, and sleep apnea, but you may need to meet certain medical guidelines to qualify for weight-loss surgery. Gastric bypass surgery is suitable for patients who are suffering from the following symptoms:

  • If your BMI is higher than 40.
  • Inability to maintain a consistent healthy weight loss with previous weight loss efforts for a period of time.
  • You are an adolescent who has gone through puberty, your BMI is 35 or older, and you have serious health problems with obesity, such as type 2 diabetes or severe sleep apnea.    

A team of doctors and psychiatrists may together assess the condition of the patient suitable for bariatric surgery. They will check for the following:

  • Body mass index ratio
  • Age
  • Medical history, like any heart disease, nutritional deficiencies, kidney problems, vascular systems, and sleeping habits.
  • Willingness to continue a healthy lifestyle post the surgery.

One of the best gastric bypass surgeries is done in India. You will have general anesthesia before this surgery. You will be asleep and pain-free.

There are two steps during gastric bypass surgery:

  • The first step is to reduce your stomach. Your surgeon uses staples to divide your stomach into a small upper and lower section. Your stomach's top section (called the pouch) is where the food you will eat will be stored. The bag is about a walnut's size. It contains approximately 1 ounce (oz) or 28 grams (g) of food. That's why you're going to eat less and lose weight.
  • The bypass is the second step. A small part of your small intestine (the jejunum) is attached by your surgeon to a small hole in your pouch. The food you eat is now going to travel from the bag into this new opening and your small intestine. As a consequence, your body absorbs fewer calories.


Using a small camera, called a laparoscope, is another way to do this surgery. This camera is in your stomach. The procedure is known as laparoscopy. The scope makes it possible for the surgeon to see inside your belly.

In this surgery:

  • 4-6 cuts are made by the surgeon in your stomach.
  • The instruments that are needed to perform the surgery are then inserted through these cuts.

Before a month of the surgery following steps are taken:

A preoperative liquid diet is very important before gastric bypass surgery to reduce the fat around the liver and spleen. If there is excessive fat around the liver or the liver is enlarged then the gastric bypass surgeons will think of rescheduling the operation and postpone it by a couple of months to have no obstruction while conducting it.  A large liver will prevent having a clear view and the surgeon will not be able to maneuver properly.

  • Below is a 1-2 week pre-op diet which will include the elements as given below:
  • Once or twice in a day serving or lean meat and vegetables, but then this must be approved by the surgeon.
  • Very thin cream of rice or wheat can be eaten
  • Only soup broth with no food in it
  • Caffeinated and carbonated beverages to be eliminated totally and only sugar - free beverages are permitted
  • Protein shakes will be the primary component of the diet.

Keep in mind to sip the drinks very slowly. The patient should consume beverages or any drinks mentioned above only after waiting 30 minutes of having a meal. If the patient has more time, then they can start with the diet 2 months before the surgery to experience the best surgical outcomes. The best gastric bypass surgery in India is done so that patients recover soon.

After Gastric bypass surgery, patients spend an average of two to five days in the hospital or longer if complications arise. Patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery usually have a shorter stay in the hospital. In India, we have Best Laparoscopic surgery available.

After an operation, you will be closely monitored by your nurses as you return to your hospital room. In addition to periodic monitoring of your vital signs— blood pressure, pulse, temperature, and breathing — your nurses will encourage and assist you in exercising deep breathing, coughing, moving your legs, and getting out of bed.

You may notice symptoms of nausea, anxiety, muscle spasms, increased pain or shortness of breath after this surgery. It is quite normal to experience such symptoms in the early days and weeks after surgery.

A patient should accept the initial pain and should start walking, walk enough to cause sweating. It is also important that they maintain the diet for another two months where they get used to healthy eating and gradually start appreciating the goodness in nutritious food.

It has been observed that patients do well when they bond with various groups who have undergone similar surgery to keep a check on their lifestyle and make it easier to follow the recovery regime.

The cost of Bariatric Surgery varies from $4800 to $6500 which is the cheapest as compared to other countries.
