Impact of Weight Reduction on Eating Behaviors and Quality of Life: Influence of the Obesity Degree

Abstract

A 3week weight reducing program changes selected eating behaviors and components of HRQL, irrespective of women's obesity degree. Data suggest that women with a BMI above 35 kg/m(2) could have a better weight control in the long term because of their higher flexible restriction after weight loss when compared to those whose BMI was under 34.9 kg/m(2).
