The direct causes of obesity and severe obesity remain unresolved in the medical community. Currently, long-term medical therapies and regimens have not been effective in treating severe obesity. Two proposed forms of medical management for severe obesity consist of lifestyle modification and increased exercise. However, surgical intervention has been proposed as more effective in facilitating and maintaining weight loss in patients with clinically severe obesity. This study examined the surgical intervention of the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass procedure, then identified those (n = 31) who had not been successful at weight loss following the gastric bypass procedure (< 40% of excess body weight lost at 18 months post surgical procedure). The failures were then enrolled into a prospective study for an estimated 3 months, with a Registered Dietitian providing monthly nutrition and health education. The dietitian used patient self-report to collect data on nutrition, exercise, and overall health outcomes. Patients' percentage of weight lost was measured pre and post study. Results revealed statistically significant improvements in nausea and vomiting (p < .02), increases in grams of protein per day (p < .01), improvements in meals and snacks per day (p < .046), and declines in eating difficulties (p < .041). Although patients did not show significant weight loss, the health education intervention resulted in improved behavioral outcomes for these patients, which may reduce subsequent health care costs.
