Question

The National Weight Control Registry, described by Wing and Phelan (2005), provides information on the ways that people have successfully lost weight and maintained weight loss long term . Registry members have maintained weight loss for at least 5 years and have lost an average of 33 kg. To maintain their weight loss, members report engaging in exercise one hour/day, eating a low-fat, low-calorie diet, eating breakfast everyday, checking their weight, and keeping a consistent eating pattern over weekdays and weekends. Also, weight loss maintenace may get easier over time; after people have kept their weight loss for 2 to 5 years, the longer-term success rises. Keeping to diet and exercise strategies, not having depression or disinhibition, and medical triggers for weight loss are also relate to long-term success. National Weight Control Registry members show that long term weight loss maintenance is possible and help indicate the specific ways that relate to long-term success.
