Is gastric bypass permanent?

The idea of gastric bypass surgery is that it is permanent. In some cases, it must be reversed, but it is always a decision of a surgeon, not a patient. Reversal of gastric bypass is a serious surgery, which involves some degree of complications afterwards including weight gain. If patients are properly qualified for gastric bypass, do not suffer from any serious risks after the surgery, follow a recommended diet and exercises routine, and most importantly lose weight, then gastric bypass is permanent and do not need reversal even after reaching a desired weight.
