Preferred term

support groups for obese women  

Definition

  • Weight-related support groups for women provide the mutual support necessary for members to achieve compliance with weight-loss protocols and to understand the underlying issues that accompany and exacerbate obesity. The validation and support shared among members assists in the facilitation of personal growth and change in a way that individual therapy cannot.
