Summary

The concept "Dare to be satisfied with food" is an educational method of group treatment based on regular meals and food based on Nordic nutrition recommendations. The method has been developed by a district nurse at the city of Ljungby, Sweden and has shown permanent weight loss in a limited number of persons who tested the method. It is important to test the method scientifically and in the long term for possible implementation in routine activities in the healthcare sector. Adults with overweight and obesity (BMI 27-45) will be recruited to the study by announcing in newspapers in the counties of Kronoberg and Kalmar and then randomized to intervention group and control group, where the control group receives dietary advice according to the Swedish National Food Agency's guidelines for overweight and obesity (including brochures).
