Evidence-based ICT tools for weight loss maintenance (NoHoW)

15.12.2015

Summary

Diets have been proven effective in relation to short term weight loss. However, programmes that tries to help people maintain a weight loss in the longer-term show high relapse and attrition rates, rendering them overall ineffective. Thus, the NoHoW intervention will evaluate the effectiveness of evidence-based ICT behaviour change tools for weight loss maintenance after a clinically significant weight loss.
