Participants will be randomly allocated into two study groups; intervention group (IG, n=15) and placebo group (PG, n=15). Computer-generated random numbers will be used to randomize the participants into one of two intervention groups.

The intervention-ONS and isocaloric-NOS will be served in opaque glasses of the same shape and color. the care providers (nurses, dietitians) will not know members of each groups or the nature or composition of the ONS.

The intervention group received a guidance regarding their diet and physical activity using the motivational interviewing strategy to improve adherence to healthy behaviors. Participants received a guide with a motivational interviewing approach, which served as the basis for the interview process. The objectives in the intervention group were to consume four vegetables and two fruits a day, seven days a week, increase fiber consumption to more than 30 g daily, reduce fat consumption to no more 20% of the total energy consumed, decrease the consumption of sugary drinks and increase protein intake. Another goal was to increase the number of steps to 4,000 additional steps to those who have already walked.

The comparison group received a guide on medical care and nutrition with a traditional educational approach. The indication was to read and learn about the health-related topics included in the booklet that was given to them. These participants were visited in the same way as the intervention group to answer questions and monitor participation throughout the intervention.

Body Weight Changes

Mammographic Density

Quality of Life

The motivational interviewing strengthens the motivation and commitment to achieve a specific change through the induction and exploration of the reasons for modifying behavior. All this within an atmosphere of acceptance and compassion. It is about extracting the possible solutions to the change that is faced from the individual and his environment and not from the professional. This strategy is achieved by looking for the patient to feel motivated, and to express their problem and thus create discrepancy so that they evaluate their actions and reflect on the changes they should make.

Motivational Interviewing

Traditional education refers to the normal care given to breast cancer survivors. That is, they receive recommendations about their physical activity and diet but without any motivational approach.

Change in score of the scale of the Quality of Life Patient/Cancer Survivor Version. questionnaire carried out by Ferrell et al., (2012). This questionnaire analyzes the dimensions of physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being through a Likert scale. The minimum score to be obtained is 42 and the maximum score is 210 points, where the higher the score, the better the quality of life and the lower the score, the worse the quality of life.

Change in score of the scale of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. This questionnaire uses a Likert-type scale and provides an overall score of the quality of sleep in a range of 0 to 21, where the highest score refers to greater difficulties in all areas of sleep and a lower score gives a better sleep quality

The Revised Vital Orientation Test (LOT-R) was used, which is made up of a total of 10 items with a Likert response with five response options (from 0 = "strongly disagree" to 4 = "strongly agree "). The higher the level of optimism, the higher the level of optimism.

The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, STAI was used. This questionnaire has twenty items for each of the subscales that are state anxiety and trait anxiety, with an alternative Likert response scale (from 0 = "nothing" to 3 = "a lot" for state anxiety and for trait anxiety of 0 = "Almost never" to 3 = "almost always"). Totals range from 0 to 60 for each subscale, a higher score reflects higher levels of anxiety.
