The nutrients taken after the surgery go to 10% of the stomach, and thanks to the tension formed in the stomach wall of this small section, an early feeling of satiety occurs, and with the transfer of the food to the middle part of the small intestine, carbohydrates, sugars and fats are eliminated from the body before they are absorbed in the small intestines. After the surgery, 85% of the excess weight is lost at the end of the first year in the general picture. After about two years, our patients reach their ideal weight.
