The relation of different weight loss methods and of diet compliance with weight loss and weight control
Abstract
Objective: Obesity is one of the most important health problems of our time. Many people use various methods to lose or maintain their weight. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the methods used for weight control.Methods: In total, 861 participants were interviewed face-to-face and electronically.Results: In the questionnaire it was found that the various differences in weight loss methods had no significant effects on weight control; however, variables such as body mass index (BMI) at onset of the diet and duration of it, marital status, age and occupation have different repercussions on weight control. In addition, targeted weight loss over a period of time was found to be adequate on dietary success.Conclusion: Our study revealed that different types of diets used for weight loss did not have an effect on reaching the targeted weight or maintaining the weight control.
