*2.2. Eligibility Criteria*

Because this was a reintervention study, the first inclusion criterion was that the patients had participated in the 'Living Better' online program in 2018. In addition, we used the same inclusion and exclusion criteria that we applied in the first study [17]: overweight (BMI between 24.9 kg/m2 and 30 kg/m2) or type I obese (29.9 kg/m2 < BMI < 35 kg/m2) adults aged 18 to 65 years with HTN. HTN was defined as SBP ≥ 140 mmHg or DBP ≥ 90 mmHg, or patients who take antihypertensive drugs. We also used the same exclusion criteria: a diagnosis of diabetes, previous ischemic heart or cerebrovascular disease, serious psychiatric disorders, use of more than three antihypertensive medicines, physical impairments that could hinder engagement in PA, receiving other treatments for weight loss, or no access to the Internet.
