intervention through the views of the participants.

having a strong support system at home or at work and the sense of competitiveness as the main key
to who were successful. Similarly, the same attributes are also the reason to those who did not
succeed in losing the prescribed weight. Most suffered difficulty of at least one month to adapt to the

intervention. Sporadically in both groups stated the intervention is sustainable for a long period.
Individual motivation plays a strong role in the success or failure in weight loss.
