Obesity, which results from an imbalance between energy intake and expenditure, is one of the most important health issues of our day, and is associated with many diseases such as type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, increased cancer risk, osteoarthritis, and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Achieving long-term weight management in the course of obesity treatment is not possible as long as significant changes in life style are not implemented. In this manuscript, we present a simple and feasible treatment model that we employ in the management of obesity. [Med-Science 2014; 3(2.000): 1332-9]
