The goal of this quasi-experimental study is to determine whether nutritional counseling can improve health outcomes in female workers with obesity at Adam Malik Hospital in Medan. Specifically, the study aims to assess the impact of nutritional counseling on participants; anthropometric measurements, body composition, total cholesterol, blood glucose, uric acid levels, as well as on attitudes, and behavioral changes. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What are the effects of nutritional counseling on anthropometric measurements, body composition, total cholesterol, blood glucose, uric acid levels? * How does nutritional counseling affect attitudes toward healthy eating and changes in health behaviors? Researchers will compare the health metrics of participants before and after receiving nutritional counseling to evaluate its effectiveness. Participants will: * Attend personalized nutritional counseling sessions over a period of 2 months. * Complete assessments that include anthropometric measurements (weight, height, BMI), body composition analysis, and blood tests for total cholesterol, blood glucose, uric acid levels * Fill out questionnaires to provide information on their attitudes, and health behaviors before and after the intervention. This study aims to provide insights into the benefits of nutritional counseling in improving various health outcomes among obese female employees.
