^*↑ = higher baseline BE associated with more weight loss and ↓ = higher baseline BE associated with less weight loss

^**where ↑ = greater increase in BE associated with more weight loss and ↓ = greater decrease in BE associated with more weight loss

¹: ↑ and ↓ each denote statistical significance in this association

²: Although authors reported successful weight loss outcomes at these time points, they did not directly provide this data or state if it was statistically significant

³: No significant association was found, but there notably was a significant negative correlation between baseline SBE and program completion
