Answer to Question 2

The National Weight Control Registry has found shared characteristics in programs of people who have maintained their weight loss.
1 . Personal responsibility for change: Weight loss winners develop an internal locus of control.
2 . Exercise: Registry members report an hour of moderate physical activity almost everyday.
3 . Monitoring: About 44 percent of registry members count calories, and almost all keep track of their food intake in some way, written or not.
4 . Vigilance: Rather than avoid the scale or tell themselves their jeans shrank in the wash, successful losers keep tabs on their weight and size.
5 . Frequent eating: In a 10-year study that followed girls from ages 9 and 10 to ages 19 and 20, those who ate frequent meals and snacks put on fewer pounds and gained fewer inches around their waists than those who ate only a couple of times each day.
