Resumen :
Purpose: This study examines elements behind sedentary lifestyles and unhealthy eating
habits in individuals who lived with severe obesity during many years of their lives.
Methods: Ten post-bariatric surgery patients participated in semi-structured interviews
7 months after surgery. A year later, a second round of interviews was also conducted to
address some knowledge gaps related to the study purpose. The qualitative data collected
were analysed through content analysis.
Results: Embarrassment about showing their body publicly, pain and poor physical condi-
tion, and bad experiences in non-inclusive physical activity contexts were found as potential
elements that contributed to their adherence to sedentary lifestyles. Poor family food educa-
tion, loss of a loved one, family problems, arguments or disputes, and past traumatic events
(e.g., childhood sexual abuses) could be related to their development of unhealthy eating
behaviours. Findings also pointed out that participants’ failed attempts to lose weight
provoked them anxiety, feelings of failure and rebellion, and influenced their return to an
unhealthy diet and a sedentary lifestyle.
Conclusions: This study may be helpful to reveal some elements which could be related to
the origin and perpetuation of severe obesity, and to design prevention/treatment strategies
from a more holistic, sensitive, and respectful perspective.
