Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of a weight management programme in primary care in achieving diabetes remission in obese patients with early diabetes.

Potential participants are to attend a screening visit to determine eligibility. Eligible participants will be invited to participate in the trial within 3 months of screening visit. 120 participants will be recruited into the study and randomised into 2 arms: control group (60 participants) or intervention group (60 participants).

Control group: Participants randomised to the control group will receive usual care with their healthcare team.

Intervention group: Participants randomised to the intervention group will be put on a weight management programme with the aim of achieving weight loss of at least 15% body weight or 15kg.

Researchers will compare between control and intervention groups to see if a weight management programme is effective in achieving diabetes remission in obese patients with early diabetes, compared to usual care.
