One of the main challenges in weight loss programmes is compliance with diet and achievement of sustainable changes in eating habits and lifestyles. Most clients desire to lose weight quickly, rather than looking at changes. The literature suggests applying telenutrition, owing to its convenience and easy access in combination with both telemonitoring and health coaching, where confounding factors in the diet are tackled. A 6-month randomised controlled trial will be conducted to compare the effectiveness of telenutrition . telenutrition supported by weekly telemonitoring and monthly health coaching in a weight loss programme. Participants are obese and overweight adults of both sex groups, aged 20-50 years who will be randomised to join a control or an intervention group. A total of three visits will be scheduled for all participants: at baseline, after three months and after six months. This study aims to answer the question of whether participants following a weight loss programme supported by telemonitoring and health coaching will increase their weight loss and compliance to the diet in comparison with the control group. This will be the first trial to assess the impact of integrating telemonitoring and health coaching in weight loss programmes, including the evaluation of associated confounding factors such as general nutrition education, eating behaviour, sensory modalities and hunger, and stress. This trial will support dietary weight loss programmes, contribute to the emerging field of telenutrition and provide advice for clinical dietitians and health coaches to work together to help individuals lose and maintain weight.
减肥计划的主要挑战之一是遵守饮食规定以及实现饮食习惯和生活方式的可持续改变。大多数客户希望快速减肥，而不是关注改变。文献表明应采用远程营养干预，因为它方便易获取，同时结合了远程监测和健康指导，可以解决饮食中的混杂因素。将进行一项为期6个月的随机对照试验，以比较远程营养干预的效果。在减肥计划中，远程营养干预由每周的远程监测和每月的健康指导提供支持。参与者为年龄在20至50岁之间的肥胖和超重成年人，男女皆有，他们将被随机分配到对照组或干预组。所有参与者共安排三次就诊：基线时、三个月后和六个月后。本研究旨在回答以下问题：与对照组相比，在远程监测和健康指导支持下进行减肥计划的参与者是否会增加体重减轻并提高对饮食的依从性。这将是第一项评估在减肥计划中整合远程监测和健康指导的影响的试验，包括评估相关的混杂因素，如一般营养教育、饮食行为、感官模式、饥饿和压力。该试验将支持饮食减肥计划，为新兴的远程营养领域做出贡献，并为临床营养师和健康指导师共同努力帮助个人减肥和维持体重提供建议。
