                    Background: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of continuous care model application on body mass index (BMI) and lifestyle of middle-aged obese.
Methods: 105 obese middle-aged were selected and assigned randomly to two groups. The data were collected using a meter, scale, and Walker health promotion lifestyle questionnaire (HPLP II). participants completed the questionnaire before undergoing the intervention, one, two, and three months after the intervention.
Results: There was no significant difference between the experimental and control groups before the intervention considering all of the studied variables. However, a significant difference was observed between groups after the intervention in terms of lifestyle dimensions and obesity control performance.
Conclusion: Considering the results of current study, the continuous care model can be effective for improving the lifestyle and health of middle-aged obese. Therefore, this model is recommended as a framework to design an overweight and obesity prevention plan.
