Q: if someone who already hardly eats cant lose weight, would gastric bypass work since its basically making you hardly eat??

: First- This is a myth. You cant gain weight unless you eat- many people have this perception till they concentrate on their intake. So pl keep a strict tab on your intake, exercise and get a medical check up. Good luck
