For the whole study population, the average emotional eating scores decreased significantly from 1.31\u2009\u00b1\u20091.17 in pre-op to 1.01\u2009\u00b1\u20091.16 one year after SG (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .007).

On the other hand, men had much lower emotional eating at baseline and had no changes after MBS, 0.90\u2009\u00b1\u20091.10 versus 0.86\u2009\u00b1\u20091.27, (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .820).
