    I don't know about losing more weight but it helps with digestion.

    My nutritionist said everybody should use Probiotics. Surgery or not.

    I had a sleeve and I'm using probiotics. It certainly can't hurt!

    I would not say it has helped me with my weight loss, but definitely helps with regularity, which can be a problem for some. I took them before lap band surgery and continue to take them now.

    sorry, just caught that you said gastric bypass, but hope this gives some input to help out.
