Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derived from combining 'obesity' (excess body fat) with 'diet' (a planned way of eating) to denote a diet aimed at treating or managing obesity. This noun–noun composition follows a common, cross-linguistic pattern and would be readily comprehensible to a B1 learner who knows both constituent words.
Etymology
Obesity diet is a compound of obesity, meaning being very overweight, and diet, the food someone eats. It names an eating plan made to help a person lose body fat and manage weight, so it means 'a dietary plan to reduce obesity'.
