dc.description.abstractPurpose: The purpose of this study was to assess individuals’ satisfaction with their diet programs and evaluate the impact of their diet on their quality of life (QOL). Design/methodology/approach: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 812 females and 334 males (n = 1,046) aged 18–65 years, all of whom were following a diet program under the guidance of a dietitian. The questionnaire included personal information as well as items related to dietary satisfaction and QOL, measured using the SF-36 scale. Findings: Of the participants, 38.4% were aged 18–24, and 32.6% were aged 25–40. The mean score for dietary satisfaction was 3.0 ± 0.9 (out of 5), while the mean scores for the mental and physical components of the QOL scale were 62.0 ± 17.8 and 74.3 ± 19.2, respectively. Factors such as age, BMI and duration of the diet were associated with dietary satisfaction, whereas age, gender, health status, diet type and BMI impacted QOL (p < 0.05). Dietary satisfaction scores showed a weak positive correlation with QOL scores (r = 0.125; p < 0.01). Originality/value: Dietary satisfaction and QOL are influenced by demographic characteristics, health status, diet type and the duration of the diet program. Additionally, there is a correlation between dietary satisfaction and QOL. To ensure the sustainability and suitability of long-term dietary plans, it is crucial to monitor patients’ dietary satisfaction. In this context, assessing the QOL in individuals on diet programs, using a newly validated diet satisfaction scale, adds originality and value to the study.
