Obesity has been an alarming global health issue that relates to nutrition intake. In Indonesia, the prevalence of obesity among individuals aged over 18 years showed upward trend from 2013 to 2018 as reported by the Basic Health Research. Obesity is a key factor contributing to the development of metabolic syndrome. Addressing this issue requires adequate education to the public on obesity prevention through various methods.

Several topics were discussed in the webinars, including deep dive into obesity, its management, dietary planning, and an introduction to the My Weight Loss Diet application. A notable improvement in participants understanding was evident as seen from increased post-test scores.
