Description:

We aim to 1) confirm that there is a reduction in food reward post-RYGB as existing studies have suggested; 2) determine whether food reward is associated with weight loss and diabetes remission; and 3) evaluate the associations of psychobiological factors (e.g., leptin, stress) with food reward at pre- and post-RYGB.
