Summary
This study tested two ways to help people maintain weight loss after an initial program. 255 adults with obesity who lost at least 5% of their body weight were randomly assigned to receive either monthly phone coaching or coaching only when a computer algorithm predicted they were at high risk of regaining weight. The goal was to see which approach better prevented weight regain over 20 months.
