Abstract in brief

  • The review analyzes 33 qualitative studies to understand how patients experience life after bariatric surgery, focusing on themes like control, normality, and ambivalence.
  • Patients generally seek control and normalcy in their lives post-surgery, experiencing both positive outcomes (like improved health and body image) and challenges that require emotional and psychological adaptation.
  • The findings highlight the need for ongoing psychological and dietary support to help patients manage these changes long-term and maintain the benefits of the surgery.]
