Summary: Introduction: There is limited evidence about longer-term weight outcomes in adults attending real-life programmes. This study investigated the feasibility of following up participants of a community weight management organisation, Slimming World (SW), the longer-term weight and behaviour change outcomes and contributors to weight loss (WL) and maintenance (WLM). Methods: 6299 adults, who joined SW 2.5–3 years earlier, were invited to participate in a survey which captured retrospective and current data on anthropometrics, physical and mental health, lifestyle, facilitators and barriers to WL and WLM. Self-reported weights were verified using electronic records. Results: Responses from 356 females (mean age 48.7 [11.57] years, baseline BMI 33.5 [6.53] kg/m2) were analysed. 50.6% were attending groups; total weight loss was 9.6 [9.72] % for current and 4.4 [8.87] % for past members.Most reported cooking more meals using fresh ingredients (93.5% current; 81.3% past), eating more fruit/vegetables (98.2% current; 74.2% past), using SW recipes >weekly (82.4% current; 72.4% past). Increases in physical activity (60.5% current; 43.5% past) and decreases in alcohol (48.1% current; 32.2% past) were reported.Support of a partner (B= -4.18, P |
