Gastric Procedures not only lead to some pretty impressive physical transformations, but also to some significant mental and emotional changes too.
“One key aspect of these changes is the big shift in self-perception and personal body image”.
Many post-procedure patients confirm the euphoric feeling of enhanced self-esteem and raised confidence as they achieve their longed-for weight loss goals.
However, these amazing transformations can sometimes also bring about feelings of vulnerability, as patients grapple with the new reality of their bodies and societies expectations of their new size.
Relationships with food may well undergo a dramatic shift post-surgery too, experiencing a newfound focus on and awareness of eating habits, leading to a more mindful approach to proper nutrition.
This change can evoke a huge spectrum of emotions, including guilt or anxiety related to new food choices, as you adjust to new dietary and portion restrictions and the psychological implications of your past eating behaviours.
Ultimately, the mental changes following gastric procedures are multifaceted, encompassing improvements in self-identity and the need for psychological support as you navigate through your post-procedure journey.
Our support, both prior to and way after your procedure is second to none, with a wealth of professionals, and nutritionists on hand to assist you, and a closed post-procedure support group where nothing is off limits to discuss to ensure that whatever you feel, you feel supported!
