The data collection was brought up by means of home interviews. Following the baseline determination, the following steps were performed: a training on the use of protocols for self-monitoring registration (Step 1), a training on the patient's verbal report over his feeding on the former day (Step 2), and a training on how to plan the adherence to the diet (Step 3). The calculation of the patient's Adherence Index to the Diet (AID) along with his verbal reports guided the data analysis, which revealed an increase in the frequency of self-observation of feeding behavior and in the AID on Step 1. This gain was maintained on Step 2 and further maximized by the training on planning the adherence to the diet on Step 3.porAcesso AbertoAdesão à dietaAuto-observaçãoRelato verbalDieta para diabéticosDiabetes Mellitus Tipo 2AdultosBelém - PAPará - EstadoAmazônia brasileiraTreino em auto-observação e adesão à dieta em adulto com diabetes tipo 2Training on self-observation and adherence to diet in an adult with type 2-diabetesArtigo de Periódico
