Individuals undergoing bariatric surgery may present inappropriate behaviors and eating habits, especially in the long term, in addition to the presence of psychological disorders, which are factors that may favor weight relapse. Objective: To describe eating behavior and perception of body self-image in women over 24 months after bariatric surgery. Materials and methods: Eating behavior and perception of body self-image in women with more than 24 months of bariatric surgery were analyzed. Fifty women undergoing bariatric surgery participated. A form was applied containing items on body perception and satisfaction, feelings of guilt when eating, “pinch” behavior, food acquisition and meal preparation. Results: There was a correlation between the habit of preparing meals and better perception and satisfaction with body self-image, greater participation in food purchases and better perception of the relationship with food. There was a correlation between relationship with food and positive perception and satisfaction with self-image, greater participation in food purchases and absence of “pinch” behavior. There was also a direct correlation of the “pinch” behavior with the use of medication and the feeling of guilt. Conclusion: Some eating patterns and dysfunctional feelings about body image and eating behavior still persist even after two years of bariatric surgery.
