I came across an article that indicates that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy may boost the Success of Weight Loss Surgery. It confirms what I and many others have found. It is why the 'Beck Diet Solution' has been such a helpful tool to me and some of my weight loss surgery support group members. The Beck Diet Solution is not geared specifically to WLS patients, but to anyone who wants to identify and manage destructive food related behaviors. Here's a link to the article.

I am not a big fan of CBT because it's like giving you a solution without really going to the core of the problem.  There are other ways besides CBT and as much as it may help some people it isn't the answer for everyone.
