Obese women can get healthier without diets:

A program that focuses on health benefits rather than weight loss

Obese women can improve their health without dieting by changing their eating habits and exercising more.

Lifestyle changes including exercise programs such as tai chi, aqua aerobics and circuit training, coupled with behavior modification, can improve health risks in obese women even if they do not lose significant amounts of weight.

65 women, who were aged between 24 and 55, were encouraged not to diet but were taught about healthy eating, how to read food labels and prepare nutritious meals. They also had to do four hours of exercise a week and were given social support.
