The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the magnitude of changes in glucose and hormone levels in response to structured exercise in the fasting state in individuals with post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH). This pilot study will assess the adequacy of a protocol to test the following hypotheses: (1) hypoglycemia will develop in individuals with PBH in response to exercise; (2) counterregulatory hormonal responses to hypoglycemia during exercise are impaired in individuals with PBH.
