Reviewed nine studies with follow-ups of Reviewed nine studies with follow-ups of two years or more (2-12 years) two years or more (2-12 years)
Initial weight loss across studies ranged Initial weight loss across studies ranged from 4.5 to 14.3 kg (M=8.3 kg)from 4.5 to 14.3 kg (M=8.3 kg)
Every study met the IOM criterion for Every study met the IOM criterion for maintenance at one year (>5% reduction)maintenance at one year (>5% reduction)
Net loss across studies at final follow-up Net loss across studies at final follow-up averaged 3 kg with only 2 of 9 meeting averaged 3 kg with only 2 of 9 meeting IOM Criterion at final follow-upIOM Criterion at final follow-up
Weight Loss Maintenance TrialWeight Loss Maintenance Trial
A multicenter, randomized clinical trial to determine the effectiveness of two innovative behavioral interventions, compared to an advice only control group in maintaining weight loss

Extended TreatmentExtended Treatment
Perri et al (1989) compared a standard 20 week program with an extended 40 week program. Clients in the extended treatment increased their weight losses by 35% during weeks 20-40. Follow-up data showed that after the extended treatment was concluded, clients reduced their adherence and began to regain weight. (Perri, Nezu, Patti, & McCann, 1989)
Review of Extended Behavioral Review of Extended Behavioral Treatment Treatment (Perri & Corsica, 2002)(Perri & Corsica, 2002)
Reviewed 13 studies that extended Reviewed 13 studies that extended group treatment more than 6 months group treatment more than 6 months using weekly or biweekly sessions using weekly or biweekly sessions (35-65 sessions over 40-78 weeks(35-65 sessions over 40-78 weeks

Telephone PromptsTelephone Prompts(Wing et al, 1996)(Wing et al, 1996)
Weekly telephone prompts used to promote self-monitoring of body weight and food intake over a 12 month post-treatment period.
Contacts were made by non-interventionists who did not offer counseling or guidance.
Although telephone prompts were associated with less weight regain (r=-.52), they did not enhance maintenance of weight loss compared to no-contact control condition.
Telephone and Mail Contacts by Telephone and Mail Contacts by Interventionists Interventionists (Perri et al, 1984)(Perri et al, 1984)

Internet Technology to Promote Internet Technology to Promote Weight MaintenanceWeight Maintenance
Internet programs using email and Internet Web sites have been shown to improve diabetes management, promote physical activity and improve quality of life in patients with HIV/AIDS
Studies look promising for weight maintenance (e.g., Harvey-Berino et al, 2002;2004; Tate 2006; WLM Protocol)
Only people who already use internet will participant…will it maintain weight for extended time period ?

Physical Activity & Weight LossPhysical Activity & Weight Loss
Even though physical activity is NOT the most efficient method of LOSING weight, it appears to be CRUCIAL to maintaining weight loss.

Motivational InterviewingMotivational Interviewing Interaction style: interact with participants
based on their level of motivation (“stage of change”)
Elicit change statements and realistic plans…Build confidence…avoid lecturing
