Comparison of WL%, EBMIL%, and EWL% between the baseline and the 1^st month follow- up and the baseline and the 6^th month follow-up among study participants.

Variables	1^st month (n = 54)	6^th month (n = 54)	p
WL%	−10.66 (5.22)	−16.71 + 8.15	<0.001^∗
EBMIL%	−22.33 (12.64)	−58.72 (17.23)	<0.001^∗
EWL%	19.46 (11.31)	49.05 + 17.62	<0.001^∗

Abbreviations: TWL%: percentage of total weight loss, EBMIL%: percentage of excess body mass index loss, EWL%: percentage of excess weight loss. The data are presented as the mean ± STD. The Wilcoxon test was used for the comparison. ^∗Significant difference.
