I'm not a medical professional but my brother actually got a gastric bypass last year so I know a few things.
Although he has lost a lot of weight he found that a lot of foods actually make him sick now and he has to avoid some of his previously favourite foods.
He has to avoid certain vegetables and was told he needs to take vitamins daily as his body can't digest them any longer as well as sticking to a high protein diet with minimal red meat.
I'm not sure if it is the same everywhere (my brother went to a private clinic in the UK) but he also had to stick to a liquid shake diet for a month before the surgery to prove he was able to lose some weight before they would operate and he said it was awful.
However as it's already been mentioned it's worth considering the risks and benefits and deciding if it's right for you.

Not medical advice.
But I do know someone who got it and regretted it. Basically food was her whole life and embodied everything she enjoyed. So obviously she was big. But contrast that with taking away someone's one source of joy and happiness - eating good food, which she couldn't do afterwards. Most foods she couldn't even tolerate anymore. And her hair started falling out because she wasn't getting protein and proper nutrients afterwards. She actually told me she regretted the surgery. Even though she lost weight and looked good. It was easier and happier just being fat.

Yes, it is. Controversial topics are always good, don't you think?
