Summary

The current project aims at evaluating the feasibility and efficacy of a multi-disciplinary weight loss program, using an innovative and simple dietary intervention at the American University of Beirut Medical Center (AUB-MC). Such intervention is expected to enhance patients' compliance and adherence to lifestyle changes. In addition, the program includes supervised exercise sessions and behavioral therapy. Therefore, our project proposes an evidence based approach to close the obesity treatment gaps.
