Based on our results, we demonstrated that a very low calorie diet with home ingredients is capable for effectively reducing body weight and liver size in morbidly obese patients. This relatively short intervention (4 to 6 weeks) was accomplished in all our patients with a high frequency of compliance and a low rate of secondary effects.

There is a significant weight loss in patients undergoing LRYGBP. Weight loss mainly occurs as a consequence of reduction in the FM with less impact on the FFM.
