About this study

Official title: Mediterranean-style and Open Protein Diet Plans on Weight Loss in Patients With Obesity After Endoscopic Bariatric Treatment

All participants were weighed every week for 24 weeks, wearing light clothes to the nearest 0.1 kg, using a body composition analyzer. Height was determined during the first clinic evaluation using a fixed wall stadiometer to the nearest 0.1 cm, in standing position.

Intervention: Participants followed a liquid diet plan during the first week after the endoscopic bariatric procedure (Bioenterics Intragastric Balloon - BIB - or Primary Obesity Surgery Endoluminal - POSE -). Subsequently, subjects were randomly assigned either a Mediterranean-style or a protein diet plan. Energy intake was calculated according to the Spanish Consensus on Bariatric Endoscopy.

The hypothesis of this project is to analyze whether the Mediterranean-style diet is more effective compared with the open protein diet plans in weight loss and weight relapse in subjects with obesity who underwent endoscopic bariatric therapies.
