Experimental: Lifestyle counseling |
Behavioral: Lifestyle modification counselling
Patients meet individually every six weeks, a nurse or kinesiologist, and a dietitian (as well as a psychologist, if needed) and every three months an endocrinologist. A unique patient chart is shared by members of the interdisciplinary team, allowing sharing of the information and avoiding repetitions. Individualized behavioural intervention is proposed and focuses on attainable goals and progressive but sustained small changes in nutrition and physical activity. In addition, the participants have access to 24 weekly group seminars, on different aspects of excess weight and modification of lifestyle, to reinforce behaviour and commitment to lifestyle changes. Our approach meets all criteria suggested for clinical intervention in the 2006 Canadian clinical practice guidelines on the management and prevention of obesity in adults and children. |
