Abstract in brief
- The study explored what diverse adolescents with overweight or obesity (OWOB) perceive as barriers and facilitators to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, noting differences between males and females.
- Barriers identified include eating habits, family influences, internal motivation, physical activity, friends, and support, with females reporting more struggles and specific barriers like support and motivation.
- Findings suggest that customizing weight loss programs to address the distinct needs of boys and girls could enhance the success and acceptability of interventions.]
