Interesting stuff Loulou 11 I just completed your questionnaire now. I was surprised just how affected my family and friends were when I told them about the surgery. Some were really supportive and other relationships over time just disappeared. It was like some people couldn't be around me unless i was the 'fat' person. Nice to see work being done in this area so we can become more informed. I would be interested in the results once the study is complete. Best of luck.
Hi everybody!
My name is Louise and I am a researcher in bariatric surgery from University College Cork in Ireland.
Having personal experience of the bariatric journey, I was amazed by the huge psychological impact the surgery has & how much we still need to learn.
Ireland has quite a small bariatric community so I would be so grateful if you would lend your voice/experience and be apart of something meaningful.
The questionnaire doesnt require any identifying information, just your experience & will take about 15min to complete.
I am more than happy to forward you the results once I have completed it if you would like.
Here it is

If you would like anymore information or the final results, my email is listed on the first page. Also, if you decide to do the survey, leave a comment & let me know so I can send positive thoughts and love your way!
Thank you so much in advance to anyone who contributes their experience
