Eating Disorders and Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery
About this event
Many people who have undergone or are considering Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery also struggle with disordered eating and in the absence of any specific training eating disorder clinicians may be struggling with questions like: How do you assess for eating disorders following Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery? What is dumping syndrome? Slider foods? Plugging? How might cognitive behavioural therapy change? What does ‘normal’ eating look like post Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery? Should their eating disorder have been treated before the surgery?
