Individuals with severe obesity often reward themselves with food. Recent research shows that dieting is good for changing eating habits and weight. However, bariatric surgery has several advantages.

One reason for severe obesity is that we eat even when we’re not hungry. We do this to satisfy other needs. Often we want to achieve some kind of short-lived feeling of happiness by rewarding ourselves. Scientists sometimes call this hedonic hunger.

But we already know that this drive to eat is not good for us, even when we find ourselves with our heads in the fridge late at night. This continues to be a problem once we have managed to reduce our body weight, because a hedonic appetite can contribute to regaining the weight we lost.

So how can we best counteract a hedonic appetite? Researchers have looked into the matter.
