Summary

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) decreases appetite, caloric intake, glycemia, and body weight, all of which are maintained long term.It is controversial whether, after RYGB, patients choose to eat less high fat and sugary foods in favor of lower energy dense alternatives. Therefore the proposition to use direct measures in humans after RYGB to test the hypothesis that the selection and intake of foods varying in fat content and glycemic index, as well as the pattern of ingestion within and across meals, changes in a manner that leads to beneficial outcomes on body weight.
