Weight Wise Archive Recordings S2 | R5: How Bariatric Surgery impacts mental health

How Bariatric Surgery Impacts Mental Health Weight Wise Wellbeing Archive | Therapy-Informed Bariatric & GLP-1 Support Bariatric surgery changes your stomach, but it also reshapes your mind, emotions, identity, coping system, and brain-gut chemistry. In this video, we explore the psychological and emotional impact of bariatric surgery for those navigating: Post-surgery weight loss GLP-1 injection support Long-term behavioural change The mental side of rapid physical transformation We cover: 🔹 Emotional overload — big feelings can surface when food can no longer be used to numb, soothe, or distract 🔸 Identity disruption — weight loss can shift how you see yourself, your relationships, and your role in the world 🔹 Grief and loss — not everyone talks about grieving old coping mechanisms, old habits, or even the body you lived in 🔸 Shame and comparison — pressure to “succeed fast” can create mental strain and self-criticism 🔹 Brain-gut communication changes — hunger, cravings, reward, and mood signals work differently after surgery 🔸 Neurodivergent impact — overwhelm, dopamine-seeking, shutdown, and sensory-based coping look different for ADHD, Autism, and AuDHD brains 🔹 The mental skill set needed for success — awareness, regulation, self-trust, pacing, and systems that support consistency 🔸 How the 8Wise® Method helps — by giving you a framework to understand your wellbeing across 8 dimensions, recognise your triggers, regulate stress, protect your progress, and build personalised support systems without self-blame Surgery removes the size of the stomach. Psychology shapes the size of the success. This is about understanding the mind you’re losing weight with, not fighting the mind you’re losing weight in.
