Brief Summary: Obesity is currently one of the most substantial health burdens Due to the production of marked and sustained weight loss bariatric surgery is an increasingly used therapeutic modality to combat obesity and its comorbidities Surgical rearrangement of the gastrointestinal tract remarkably alters metabolism and hormones acting on neurological and hypothalamic signalling involved in food decision-making and eating behaviour In this context many patients who underwent bariatric surgery self-report changes in appetite satiety and food preferences Furthermore new gut hormone-based eg GLP-1 receptor agonist or GLP-1-RA pharmacotherapies which mimic the effect of bariatric surgery show impressive efficacy on weight reduction by modulation of food behaviour However the mechanisms of such functional changes and how they relate to food decision-making and food purchase behaviour remain unknown

In Part 2 of the BrainFood-project the investigators propose a novel approach using digital receipts from loyalty card to unravel the effect of obesity treatments surgical and non-surgical on eating and food purchase behaviour in daily life
Detailed Description: The overall aim of this project is to elucidate the changes in food behaviour among obese adults undergoing obesity treatments

The main objective is to observe the effect of obesity treatments on food purchase behaviour using digital receipts from grocery shopping The investigators hypothesize that bariatric surgery leads to changes in food purchase behaviour in obese adults

The further objective is to compare food purchase behaviour between obese adults against values of an existing reference population and to assess whether these differences tend to be reduced after the start of the treatment among obese participants
