  • Key methods included modification of nutritional habits, caloric intake monitoring, and tracking physical activity.
  • Main Results:

    • 62.69% (84 clients) achieved significant weight reduction.
    • The average weight loss among participants was 5.98 kg.
    • Weight loss ranged from 1 to 31 kg per person, with 6.72% maintaining their starting weight and 30.60% experiencing weight gain.

    Conclusions:

    • The "Schlank ohne Diät" program, emphasizing nutritional changes and self-control, demonstrates effectiveness in promoting weight reduction for a majority of participants.
    • Self-monitoring of caloric intake and physical activity are key components for successful weight management.
    • Further research may explore factors contributing to weight gain in a subset of participants to optimize the program.
