Experimental Treatment
Group I: Weight Management InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
During a 12-month period, participants will attend a total of 22 diet improvement sessions, each of which will last approximately 1 hour. Twelve sessions will be held in the first 5 months and will be focused on safe and efficient weight loss. The participants will learn to create a personalized weight loss diet from their kitchen based on their diet practice and food preference. The next 10 sessions will be held in the last 7 months and will be focused on weight maintenance and healthy eating. The participants will build skills to select foods and create meals that prevent them from overeating. Participants will be followed by daily self-weighing for 1 year after intervention.
