A new study, published in the online edition of Obesity Reviews, found that people gain a similar percentage of weight no matter how much they initially lose. People who dropped the most pounds at the start of their diet and exercise program had the best long-term results.
The researchers examined data from 12 different weight-loss studies, which involved almost 1,000 overweight and obese individuals. After weighing the participants at the beginning and the end of the study, as well as one year later, the study authors recommended that overweight and obese patients lose 10 percent or more of their body weight in order to stay slim in the long run.
