SELF-PERCEPTIONS AND PHYSICAL WELL-BEING AMONG LAP BAND PATIENTS

Researchers from The University of Western Australia together with bariatric surgeon Dr Leon Cohen, urgently require participants for a research investigation looking at how perceptions of oneself change in terms of physical abilities and physical appearance after lap band surgery.

Participants will be asked to complete a series of short questionnaires before, during and after surgery.
