Why some people are more successful at weight loss than others

CHICAGO, May 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Some people lose weight and keep it off for good. Others struggle with weight issues their entire lives. So what's the secret to long-lasting weight loss?

Nationally renowned obesity expert James O. Hill, PhD, will join exercise physiologist Scott Brunning for a webinar that will examine scientific data from The National Weight Control Registry on attributes that make people "successful losers." They also will delve into the latest peer-reviewed research to give attendees actionable ideas for driving weight loss.
