Unrealistic weight loss expectations in candidates for bariatric surgery
چکیده انگلیسی
The results of our study have shown that although the candidates for bariatric surgery understand its benefits, they have unrealistic expectations of weight loss. In our study, the patients' most modest weight loss expectation, the “disappointed” weight, was equivalent to what providers would consider a successful weight loss outcome after bariatric surgery. Setting realistic expectations is an important aspect of the preoperative evaluation and education, especially for younger women.
