Adherence

An individualized dietary intervention combining energy-restricted meal plans with group-based behavioral support and close monitoring achieves significant, sustained weight loss in postmenopausal women with overweight.

For postmenopausal women with overweight, sustainable weight loss is best achieved through a personalized diet plan that respects your food preferences, rather than a generic diet. This plan should include a moderate caloric deficit (approx. 750 kcal/day), potentially using meal replacements initially, and crucially, requires strong social support through group sessions and regular check-ins with a nutritionist to maintain motivation and address challenges like shake fatigue.
