National Weight Control Registry

June 5, 2007

Now THIS SITE is kinda interesting, especially if you’re one of the 9 jzillion people in America interested in losing weight. The Weight Control Registry is an ongoing investigation – you know, like all scientific and stuff – into who loses weight and keeps it off. To be considered for membership, you have to be 18+ years old, and you need to have maintained a weight loss of at least 30 pounds for at least a year. They they do all this cool peer-reviewed research on these folks to determine which behaviors, psychological factors, and diets have lead to long-term weight loss. (It looks like exercise and eating less might have something to do with it.)
