Control of Eating Attributes and Weight Loss Outcomes over One Year After Sleeve Gastrectomy
ConclusionIndividuals with obesity who achieved a target of  ≥ 25%TWL at 1 year post-SG have an early improvement in overall eating control at 3 months that steadily persists at 6 and 12 months. Improvements in other aspects tend to follow later, at 6 and 12 months. These findings may assist in identifying individuals with inadequate response to he lp attain optimal weight loss targets and developing a prognostic model to identify predictors of successful weight loss.Graphical Abstract (Source: Obesity Surgery)
