Summary:Background and Aims Eating rate is associated with BMI and weight gain in various populations, and is a factor modulating the risk of complications after bariatric surgery. The aim of the present study is to determine whether common difficulties to change eating rate in subjects with obesity candidate to bariatric surgery, could be due to more extensive abnormalities in eating behavior. Methods A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to 116 consecutive female patients attending a nutrition consultation for obesity in a specialized center in France.

Results Average age of the study population was 38.4 ± 12.7 years. Mean BMI was 45.5 ± 6.7, and eating rate was 6.3 ± 1.8. Rapid eating was present in 50.0% of the population. There was an inverse relationship between eating rate and degree of chewing ( r  = −0.59, p
