Results from HMR at HomeĀ®

Comparison of two self-directed weight loss interventions: limited weekly support vs. no outside support.

Obes Res & Clin Pract 2009;3:149-157

Participants were randomly assigned to the HMR at Home self-directed program using meal replacements with either limited weekly support or no additional support. Both groups lost substantial weight (13 lbs., 17 lbs. respectively) in 12 weeks indicating the success of both options.



Comparison of a phone vs. clinic approach to achieve 10% weight loss.

Int J Obes 2007;31:1270-1276

Ninety-six men and women were randomly assigned to an HMR® clinic, HMR phone program, or a control group. Both the clinic and phone groups lost significantly more weight at 12 weeks than the control group (28.0, 23.4, and 0.77 pounds respectively). At 6 months, the phone and clinic groups both lost about 28 lbs. demonstrating that a weight loss intervention delivered entirely over the phone is a viable alternative method to a traditional clinic intervention.



Successful weight maintenance in a telephone-based treatment program. Obes Res 2004;12 suppl:A44.
This study documented preliminary results for 37 participants who successfully completed the weight-loss phase of the HMR at Home phone support program and transitioned to maintenance. Overall, in 26.4 weeks, these participants lost 25.6 lbs. or 12.1% of initial body weight.

Coaching a weight loss group over the telephone: a successful treatment option. Obes Res 2003;11 suppl:A84.
The average weight loss for 55 participants who completed six weeks of the HMR at Home phone support program was 16.69 lbs. Overall, these data are comparable to the weight loss in the clinic-based program.

Increasing options for treatment: leading weight management groups via telephone. J Am Diet Assoc 2003;103 suppl 1:A-37.
This study extended earlier findings by providing the HMR at Home phone support program in groups over the phone. The average weight loss for those completing the six week program was 17.2 lbs. or 7.5% of initial body weight.

Weight loss program via telephone coaching: a successful treatment option. J Am Diet Assoc 2002;102 suppl 2:A-24.
