Weight re-gain after gastric bypass is common. Most patients will regain 30% of the weight they lost, and up to 1 in 5 will regain all of the weight. This may be due to many factors, but the pouch itself can stretch over time, leading to less restriction and the ability to eat more food. Until recently, the only way to fix this problem was with major surgery. However, we now have the ability to tighten and restore a "stretched-out" pouch with a brief, same-day, endoscopic procedure. Here, Dr. Christopher McGowan of True You Weight Loss explains the process, known as Transoral Outlet Reduction (TORe). For more information, visit www.trueyouweightloss.com
