Bariatric surgery is a life-changing treatment, but knowledge of its influence on changes in relationship satisfaction (RS) is still limited. The present study examines whether a patient's RS changes after having bariatric surgery, in response to the surgery-induced weight loss. The predictive value of further variables such as age and sex are also...
