The obesity nutritional treatment is structured to weight loss and diet is considered an important indicator of treatment effectiveness. The purpose of this study is to compare the diet quality among women who lost weight to women who maintained or gained weight during the nutritional treatment.This is a retrospective study that included 66 obese women in nutritional treatment for weight loss, over six months, divided in tercile according to their weight loss. The diet quality was evaluated by score, which was obtained with a food frequency questionnaire.The diet quality comparison was made among the group with weight loss (GL; n = 22) and the group that maintained or gained weight during the nutritional treatment (GG; n = 22) showed that both groups had improvement in their diet quality scores from pre-treatment to post-treatment. Nevertheless, the GG had higher sugar consumption than the GL in the pre-treatment (p = 0.02) and in the post-treatment (p 0.01) periods. In the post-treatment, GL increased their scores for leafy vegetables (0.013), fruit (0.004), sweets (p 0.03), and soft drinks (p 0.02). GL improved their scores for fried food (p 0.01) and sweets (p 0.008).This indicates that in the weight loss treatment special attention should be given to the incentive to the fruit and leafy vegetables consumption and, to reduce the consumption of sweets.
