Tele-CBT Following Bariatric Surgery: Randomized Control Trial

The Tele-CBT sessions focus on introducing the cognitive behavioural model of overeating and obesity, scheduling healthy meals and snacks at regular time intervals and recording consumption using food records, scheduling pleasurable alternative activities to overeating, identifying and planning for difficult eating scenarios, and reducing vulnerability to overeating by solving problems and challenging negative thoughts. Participants are expected to complete CBT homework between sessions, such as completing food records, engaging in pleasurable and self-care activities, and completing a variety of worksheets.
