Summary
This study looked at two different diet strategies to help people with obesity maintain weight loss over nearly two years. 345 adults aged 18 to 70 with a BMI between 27 and 45 took part. One group followed a low-energy-density diet (eating lots of low-calorie foods), while the other group ate to match their daily energy needs. The goal was to see which approach worked better for keeping weight off long-term.
