Outcome
Difference baseline to follow-up, for intervention vs. control participants*
Difference in weight, kg −0.84 (−4.31, 2.63) 0.63 −1.17 (−4.97, 2.63) 0.54 −1.25 (−5.10, 2.61) 0.52 −1.12 (−5.28, 3.05) 0.59
Difference in BMI, kg/m2 −0.34 (−1.55, 0.87) 0.57 −0.46 (−1.77, 0.86) 0.49 −0.46 (−1.79, 0.88) 0.49 −0.48 (−1.93, 0.96) 0.50
Sensitivity**
Difference in weight, kg −0.86 (−4.79, 3.06) 0.66 −0.93 (−5.27, 3.41) 0.66 −0.95 (−5.36, 3.46) 0.66 −0.58 (−5.39, 4.22) 0.81
Difference in BMI, kg/m2 −0.36 (−1.72, 1.01) 0.60 −0.38 (−1.88, 1.13) 0.61 −0.38 (−1.91, 1.15) 0.62 −0.35 (−2.04, 1.33) 0.67

*For participants who withdrew from the study before the completion of 50 weeks, the last weigh-in value for each participant was carried forward (N = 5; 4 intervention, 1 control).

**Excluded participants who withdrew from the study before the completion of 50 weeks (N = 5).

Model 1. Unadjusted linear regression

Model 2. Adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnicity, and time elapsed from baseline to follow-up (weeks)

Model 3. Model 2 additionally adjusted for baseline weight (for weight outcomes) or baseline BMI (for BMI outcomes)

Model 4. Model 3 additionally adjusted for weight loss in the prior 2 years and time elapsed from max weight in prior 2 years to enrollment date. One participant was missing max weight loss in the prior two years; we used the validated max weight loss in one year prior.

Data collected from Brigham and Women’s Hospital employees in Boston, MA between 2016 and 2018.
