Sustaining Success: Key Strategies for Long-Term Weight Maintenance
SUSTAINING SUCCESS: KEY STRATEGIES FOR LONG-TERM WEIGHT MAINTENANCE
Maintaining weight loss can be the most difficult part of the weight loss journey for many people, but it is the most critical time to provide support to our patients and clients. Most of us have probably experienced the frustration of patients who worked hard to meet their weight loss goal only to gain the weight back and more. This can decrease patient motivation and engagement each time this happens, and so it's imperative to have the tools and resources to promote sustainable weight loss maintenance.

This webinar will explore the psychological, behavioral, and physiological aspects of long-term weight maintenance, providing comprehensive insights into sustaining your clients' hard-earned success. Learn the latest research on the key habits shown to support weight maintenance and how you can use an evidence-based approach to keep their momentum going for long-term health.
Upon successful completion of this one-hour course, the participant should be able to:
  • Recognize the physiological adaptations that occur during weight maintenance and why it's difficult to keep the weight off.


  • Understand and implement the psychological, behavioral, and physiological aspects of weight maintenance.


  • Identify the latest scientific findings that increase weight maintenance and incorporate these insights into clinical practice.
