Associations Between Body Mass Index, Body Image Satisfaction, and Self‐Weighing During a Behavioral Weight Loss Program
Although results demonstrating negative associations between BMI and body image satisfaction and between self-weighing adherence and weight loss were consistent with prior literature, the lack of an association between BMI, BISS, and self-weighing was not consistent with hypotheses or the prior cross-sectional literature. Given the role self-weighing plays in behavioral weight-loss programs, future research should aim to identify other predictors of self-weighing adherence.
