Gastric banding

The gastric bypass surgery works by making the stomach smaller and making your digestive system shorter by removing a part of your bowel. This makes you eat small meals and as a result your body would take up few calories resulting in weight loss. You may continue to lose weight for up to a year. This puts your body through trauma. Side effects: You may suffer from nausea, vomiting, hernia, blood clots or infections. While you are reducing your intake, you may end up with low blood sugar making you feel dizzy or even get bouts of diarrhea. This results from low nutrient intake as you are unable to eat normally because of reduced stomach size.
