Detailed Description
The dietary and eating behavior outcomes for adolescents who undergo bariatric surgery are virtually unknown. The main trial of the Teen-LABS consortium is not studying dietary intake and eating behavior before and after bariatric surgery. The consortium, however, provides a unique opportunity to investigate these issues in a large and diverse sample through the context of the proposed ancillary study.
