Summary

Lifestyle intervention and physical capacity in patients with morbid Obesity (LEICO)

Detailed description

It is still uncertainty about which is the most effective lifestyle treatment to reducing body weight and increased quality of life. Increased physical capacity and muscle mass lead to increased energy expenditure, thus explaining parts of the difference in weight loss achieved after lifestyle treatment. However, literature in this area is limited and need better documentation of how, and to what extent increased physical capacity can affect the effect of lifestyle treatment offered to patients in the health service.
