This trial is testing a weight loss surgery called laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The study compares two approaches: one using standard measurements for everyone, and another that customizes the measurements based on each person's individual bowel length. Researchers want to see if the personalized approach leads to better weight loss and improvement in related health conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure.
Weight loss surgery is an effective treatment for obesity, but doctors aren't sure whether using a one-size-fits-all approach or customizing the surgery to match each person's body anatomy produces better long-term results. This trial aims to answer that question.

If you join this trial, you will undergo laparoscopic (minimally invasive) weight loss surgery. You'll be randomly assigned to either the standard surgery group or the customized surgery group. After surgery, you'll have follow-up visits where doctors will measure your weight loss, BMI improvement, and how well any related health conditions (like diabetes) have improved. The study involves 40 patients total, and you'll need to commit to the post-surgery diet and attend all scheduled follow-up appointments.
