Abstract in brief
The meta-analysis reviewed 37 studies with over 16,000 participants and found that behavioral weight management programs generally lead to an average weight loss of about 2.8 kg after 12 months. Most variability in success was due to differences in program effectiveness, not specific characteristics of the programs.
Factors expected to increase effectiveness, such as supervised physical activity, more frequent contact, or in-person sessions, did not show a significant impact on weight loss in this analysis.
Programs that involved calorie counting, contacting dietitians, or using behavior change techniques that compare participants’ behaviors with others tended to be more effective in promoting weight loss, suggesting these features may help improve program success.
@ZsoltNagy7 @BioLayne @Kenny_Lindsay @garytaubes Calorie counting, however, resulted in higher adherence and 2x weight loss than dietary consulting and any other intervention, in the general population. Is it good and easy for diet loss? Is it mandatory? No.

@The_Nutrivore @MatthewJDalby Probably, calories counting and (to a lesser end) professional consulting are more effective intervention than randomly ELMM, e.g. https://t.co/JBRHr3q7QA

@MrFibbers In an attempt to be a good science communicator, I had a quick look at the literature. The most recent review I can find suggests calorie counting is the most effective intervention for weight loss, but doesn't really mention sugar restricted diets: https://t.co/r1I3WL6Yvn
