In Phase 2, we observed better weight loss maintenance (.5\u2009kg [13.2%] regain from 7 to 18\u2009months, vs. 1.7\u2009kg [36.2%] in Phase 1). Variation in outcomes, high early dropout rates and qualitative feedback indicated that, although delivery of the intervention and trial procedures was feasible and acceptable, there was scope to refine the intervention to engage a wider range of participants.
