We have identified an error in our manuscript, which was first published in Obesity Science & Practice on 18 August 2020.

The manuscript includes the erroneous addition of two male participants within the demographics table (Table 2: Demographics of focus group participants by sex). The table has been corrected and the two participants have been removed. We have also redone analysis of the demographics table, which was impacted by the error. There were no other portions of the manuscript impacted by this error. The corrected demographics table is included below.
