Abstract

Put simply, the target for the dietary management of weight loss is to achieve a consumption of fewer calories relative to energy expenditure [1] , but weight loss needs to be sustained [2]. One way of focusing on this problem is to consider shifts in dietary patterns that feel normal and routine, where a sustained change in dietary pattern supports a sustained change in weight [3].
