- Title
Modeling weight-loss maintenance to help prevent body weight regain.
- Authors
Hall, Kevin D; Jordan, Peter N
- Abstract
Lifestyle intervention can successfully induce weight loss in obese persons, at least temporarily. However, there currently is no way to quantitatively estimate the changes of diet or physical activity required to prevent weight regain. Such a tool would be helpful for goal-setting, because obese patients and their physicians could assess at the outset of an intervention whether long-term adherence to the calculated lifestyle change is realistic.
