Overview
Brief Summary
Lifestyle intervention and physical capacity in patients with morbid Obesity (LEICO)
Detailed Description
It is still uncertainty about which is the most effective lifestyle treatment to reducing body weight and increased quality of life. Increased physical capacity and muscle mass lead to increased energy expenditure, thus explaining parts of the difference in weight loss achieved after lifestyle treatment. However, literature in this area is limited and need better documentation of how, and to what extent increased physical capacity can affect the effect of lifestyle treatment offered to patients in the health service.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Weight change at 12-weeks follow up
Time Frame: Changes from baseline body weight at 12-weeks follow up.
Can physical capacity before start of a routine medical care have a impact on weight loss at 12-weeks follow-up. Body weight was measured with patients wearing light clothing and no shoes on Scanvaegt DS-530 (Århus, Denmark) at baseline and after 12-weeks follow up. Changes from baseline body weight at 12-weeks follow up. Participants receive interventions as part of routine medical care, and studie the effect of the intervention.
Weight change at 1-year follow up
Time Frame: Changes from baseline body weight at 1-year follow up.
Can physical capacity before start of a routine medical care have a impact on weight loss at 1-year follow-up. Body weight was measured with patients wearing light clothing and no shoes on Scanvaegt DS-530 (Århus, Denmark) at baseline and after 1-year follow up. Changes from baseline body weight at 1-year follow up. Participants receive interventions as part of routine medical care, and studie the effect of the intervention.
Secondary Outcomes
- Physical capacity changes after 12 weeks as assessed by the maximal oxygen uptake test(Changes from baseline physical capacity at 12-weeks follow up.)
