Kept at least 30lbs off for a year? Register here

http://www.nwcr.ws/default.htm

Quote:
The National Weight Control Registry (NWCR), established in 1994 by
Rena Wing, Ph.D. from Brown Medical School, and James O. Hill, Ph.D. from the University of Colorado, is the largest prospective investigation of long-term successful weight loss maintenance. Given the prevailing belief that few individuals succeed at long-term weight loss, the NWCR was developed to identify and investigate the characteristics of individuals who have succeeded at long-term weight loss. The NWCR is tracking over 5,000 individuals who have lost significant amounts of weight and kept it off for long periods of time. Detailed questionnaires and annual follow-up surveys are used to examine the behavioral and psychological characteristics of weight maintainers, as well as the strategies they use to maintaining their weight losses.
One of the abstracts is that low fat diets are the best method to maintain weight loss. Let's show 'em they're wrong

It appears that they will mail stuff to your house to fill out, but I didn't get any errors not listing my phone number.

Remember, must have lost over 30lbs and kept it off for over a year. I'm not sure if that includes anyone still trying to lose weight or not, but it can't hurt trying to sign up!

I'd register but I've only kept my 30+ lbs off for about a week! Just got there, and it's gone for good!!! My congratulations to those of you who are eligible! Keep up the great work.

Rick
