Efficacy of Telephone-Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Weight Loss, Disordered Eating, and Psychological Distress After Bariatric Surgery

This randomised clinical trial, that included 306 adults, found that telephone-based cognitive behavioural therapy (tele-CBT) delivered at one year after bariatric surgery resulted in no change in short-term weight outcomes.

However, binge eating, emotional eating, and depression and anxiety symptoms were significantly reduced in individuals receiving tele-CBT versus the control group.
