Weight Loss Study

Obesity is a significant health problem worldwide.  It is particularly prevalent in the Southern United States.  Obesity is preventable and treatable.  Many individuals having obesity/overweight have made several attempts to lose weight through lifestyle changes with some success in the short term.  However, maintenance of weight loss long term is rare.
