| Abstract: | Surgery is the most effective treatment for morbid obesity, to lose weight and reduce the associated comorbidities. Despite the effectiveness of bariatric surgery, post-bariatric patients are not always able to maintain the essential behavioral change and may gain weight as a result. An important aspect in behavior change is altering problematic eating behavior. Patients may show problematic eating behaviors when they experience negative emotions, as well as when they are in a certain environment or doing certain activities.There is a widespread agreement across research that there is a relationship between emotion, environmental factors, and eating behavior in the obese population. The current study aims to learn more about this association in post-bariatric patients. Besides that, this study aims to examine multiple eating behaviors. It is crucial to understand the factors that drive poor eating behavior after bariatric surgery in order to decrease or avoid problematic eating behavior and weight regain. |
