Weight loss, weight maintenance, and adaptive thermogenesis.
BACKGROUND Diet-induced weight loss is accompanied by adaptive thermogenesis, ie, a disproportional or greater than expected reduction of resting metabolic rate (RMR). OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate whether adaptive thermogenesis is sustained during weight maintenance after weight loss. DESIGN Subjects were 22 men and 69 women [mean ± SD age: 40 ± 9 y; body mass index (B...
متن کاملMotivational predictors of weight loss and weight-loss maintenance.
Self-determination theory proposes that behavior change will occur and persist if it is autonomously motivated.

متن کاملLong-term weight loss maintenance.
There is a general perception that almost no one succeeds in long-term maintenance of weight loss.

The National Weight Control Registry provides information about the strategies ...
متن کاملInternal disinhibition predicts weight regain following weight loss and weight loss maintenance.
OBJECTIVE The disinhibition scale of the Eating Inventory predicts weight loss outcome; however, it may include multiple factors. The purpose of this study was to examine the factor structure of the disinhibition scale and determine how its factors independently relate to long-term weight loss outcomes. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES Exploratory factor analysis of the disinhibition scale was...
