Setting: An online weight management platform (Aviitam®) used by adults with obesity across France. Participants: Adults with body mass index (BMI) \>25 kg/m² participating in a weight management pathway who completed validated questionnaires assessing psychological and lifestyle factors. Main Outcomes: Identification of clusters based on questionnaire responses, BMI, age and gender.
