Brief Summary
Weight loss achieved by dieting induces multiple changes. These changes include a decrease in metabolic rate (the rate in which the body burns its calories), an increase in appetite and other physiological and hormonal changes that may be the cause of failure in dieting. Many of these parameters that have never been evaluated when weight is lost after gastric bypass surgery will be tested in this study.
