What this trial studies

This project aims to integrate a psychosocial approach into a therapeutic patient education program at Poitiers University Hospital to address the negative effects of obesity stigma. It involves a randomized study where patients will participate in obesity-specific physical activity workshops and social well-being workshops over 12 months. Participants will be assessed at multiple time points to evaluate the impact of these interventions on their psychological and social well-being. The study seeks to improve self-efficacy and quality of life for severely obese patients by targeting the detrimental effects of obesity stereotypes.
