Dietary, weight and psychological changes among patients with obesity, 8 years after gastric by-pass. Outcomes BMI & Psychosocial measures • Primary Outcome • Successful weight loss defined as Excess Weight Lossa (EWL) >50% • Other outcomes • Body composition (measured with bioelectrical impedance analysis) • Diet intake (assessed via four day food diary) • Eating disorders, psychological factors and quality of life (assessed via questionnaires) • Perceptions of difficulties and benefits (assessed using semi-structured interviewing) a. EWL was computed as = ((weight at baseline - weight at follow-up visit) / excess weight at baseline) * 100, where “excess weight” was the difference between weight at baseline and weight corresponding to a BMI of 25 kg/m2 JOURNAL OFTHE AMERICAN DIETETICASSOCIATION Kruseman et al.J Am Diet Assoc. 2010; Volume 110 (April).
