Is it possible to develop diabetes after having successful gastric bypass surgery?

No : It is more likely to get diabetes by not having gastric bypass surgery or losing weight by other means.

Yes: Independent some with significant weight loss can reduce or control diabetes also.

That's a hard one.: Gastric bypass usually fixes diabetes even before significant weight is lost, so developing diabetes after gastric bypass surgery would be odd
