Gilis-Januszewska A, et al. - The factors that predicted successful weight loss were identified in a less intensive, lower budget, real-life setting lifestyle diabetes prevention intervention. Among individuals with a high risk for the type 2 diabetes (DM2) following lifestyle intervention in a real-life primary health care setting, baseline higher body mass index (BMI), lower education and a history of increased glucose predicted the successful weight loss. People who managed to lose weight more frequently adhered to lifestyle changes, while the reduction of total fat in diet independently predicted successful weight loss.
