Objective
Cardiovascular health (CVH) declines in young adulthood. This study assessed whether weight gain prevention interventions promoted ideal CVH.
Methods
Young adults (n = 599; age 18–35 years; BMI: 21.0–30.9 kg/m2) from a randomized controlled trial comparing two weight gain prevention interventions (self‐regulation with large or small changes) and a self‐guided control group completed anthropometric...
Objective
Recovery from weight regain is uncommon during weight loss treatment. This study examined whether participants in a weight gain prevention intervention similarly struggle to recover following weight gains and which factors predict transitions.
Methods
This is a secondary analysis of data from the Study of Novel Approaches to Weight Gain Prevention (SNAP), a randomized controlled trial...
Objective
This study aimed to determine the impact of weight gain prevention interventions on changes in cardiovascular risk factors over 6 years.
Methods
The Study of Novel Approaches to Weight Gain Prevention (SNAP) randomized 599 participants (ages 18‐35; 46% with BMI 21‐25; 54% with BMI 25‐30) to Large Changes (produce buffer by losing 5‐10 pounds initially), Small Changes (daily small changes...
Objective
In traditional behavioral weight loss (BWL) programs, young adults fare worse than older adults with respect to engagement, retention, and weight loss, but money and use of technology have been cited as program factors that might improve outcomes for this population. This study evaluated young adult performance in internet‐based BWL (IBWL) offering financial incentives for self‐monitoring...
Objective
This study aimed to characterize young adults who experienced significant weight gains (> 10%) over 3 years in a weight gain prevention program.
Methods
Secondary data analysis from the Study of Novel Approaches to Weight Gain Prevention (SNAP), a randomized trial comparing two self‐regulation interventions and a control arm in young adults (18‐35 years; BMI 21‐30.9 kg/m2), was used...
