Study Summary
Utilizing fMRI, this study will examine changes in BOLD signal as a proxy measure of brain activation in response to highly palatable (high energy density \[kcal/g\]), less palatable and non-food stimuli in severely obese women pre, 1 month post and 3 months post undergoing bariatric surgery (in surgery patients) and at equivalent times for control groups in fed and fasted conditions at each time point. Two surgical groups: (i) laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and (ii) gastric banding (GB) will be compared with two control groups: (i)those enrolled on a 3-month formula weight loss program or (ii) those who qualify, but do not undergo bariatric surgery, and receive no weight loss treatment.
Primary Outcome
BOLD signal changes in the brain in response to highly palatable (high energy density \[kcal/g\]), less palatable (low energy density)and non-food, stimuli in severely obese women pre-surgery, 1 month post-surgery and 3 months post bariatric surgery
