I want to find out about the increase in the divorce rate after bariatric surgery.
Does it go up in both post op men as well as women? 

I'd like to talk about reforming your "self", as you learn how to live eating different in a different body.   

I want to find out how to find balance between the physical changes and the mental turmoil of forcing yourself to abandon long term food addictions through surgery. 

How about why is it so hard to throw out clothing that OBVIOUSLY no longer fits and is out of style anyhow?  What are we afraid of.

How about the links between weight loss and depression?  How much is chemical and how much is just drastic social change?

What are the traits of people who fail and gain all the weight back?   Are any of their actions identified so that we can avoid following in their footsteps.

What happens to people who get the surgery and realize their problem never was about weight at all?   What happens when people go through this and are just as miserable, if not more miserable, in their lives than they were before, only now they can't eat.  How do they learn to cope and finally be happy?

How do we deal with body dysmorphia, when you feel fat on the inside and are suddenly thin on the outside.   How do you deal with still seeing yourself as heavy when your a normal, or near normal, weight.

Oh yeah, I gotz me some issues.

I would like to hear the Psychologist discuss the adverse effects B12 and other vitamin deficiencies have. How to address the issues as they develop and how to differentiate emotional pitfalls from biological pitfalls.  Does that make any sense?
