Background: Since 2013, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has been the most practiced bariatric procedure in Canada. The SG yields good shortterm weight loss results with low complication rates, but some patients experience less weight loss and even weight regain in the long term. This may be partly explained by postoperative maladaptive eating behaviors (MEB). This study aimed (1) to explore the effect of SG on MEB and (2) to explore the impact of MEB on weight-loss trajectories.
