OBJECTIVE: The effects of a mixed program of nutrition intervention and physical exercise on body composition and feeding habits were evaluated in obese climacteric women. METHODS: Thirty participants were randomly assigned in 2 groups during 40 weeks: diet group (nutritional intervention) and exercise group (nutritional intervention and exercise). RESULTS: Weight reductions (diet group -2.3kg, exercise group -5.3kg) and waist circumference (diet group -4.8cm, exercise group -7.6cm) were greater in exercise group. A positive evolution was noticed in the body mass index in both groups, with exercise group having better answer to treatment. It was observed a monotonous feeding pattern and low compliance to the consumption of regional typical foods. CONCLUSION: We concluded that the program was effective for weight loss at a higher intensity in the presence of exercise and the feeding education was able to modify the feeding habits.
