BENEFITS. 1  Gastric bypass surgery, in combination with diet and exercise, can successfully help patients lose 50-60% of excess weight over a period of about two years. Other procedures can result in as much as 80% loss of excess weight.
The risk of complications is lower at centers that do more than 100 weight loss surgeries per year. Deaths in the month following gastric bypass surgery are very rare (about 0.2% to 0.5%, or less than one in 200 people) when the procedure is done by a highly experienced surgeon.
