Abstract:

A method for controlling a body weight and any weight-dependent parameters comprising consistent daily measurement of these parameters, setting monthly runs for monitoring, constructing a new control scale for each run based on individual variability of these parameters for the previous month, and identification of in-control, out-of-control and on-target states according to real nonrandom shifts of these parameters. The real shifts among their random fluctuations are detected by special control rules developed before for quality control. The method provides evaluation of progress and efficacy of the weight control over the run by measuring a mean value of results, variability of results and a score for weight shifts. The method may be embodied in paper template forms separated or inserted in any printed materials as well as in algorithms for computer programs inserted into a weight scale and other measuring devices, personal computer, PDA and other electronic devices, and in algorithms for programs provided direct data transfer from measuring devices to the computer.
