The National Weight Control Registry
The National Weight Control Registry at http://www.nwcr.ws keeps track
of successful losers (who don't rebound) and what those people have in common. (By the by, I wonder why a U.S.-based "national" registry uses a Western Samoa top-level domain.) Anyway, they report: "There is variety in how NWCR members keep the weight off. Most report continuing to maintain a low calorie, low fat diet and doing high levels of activity." Makes sense. They also say: "45% of registry participants lost the weight on their own and the other 55% lost weight with the help of some type of program." I wonder what the success rate of different programs are. doug |

At WebMD there is a reference to the JAMA reported study: http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content...urcetype=HWCIT If you read it top to bottom it sounds like Atkins was the most successful. Yet I am not experiencing any success with it. It is SO confusing! doug |
