Results provide evidence of a bidirectional association between self-monitoring and weight change. Better self-monitoring was consistently associated with better weight loss across intervention and tracking modalities. Poorer weight loss was prospectively associated with poorer self-monitoring in group treatment, suggesting that social influences could drive adherence in this form of treatment.
