There is individual variability in weight change in response to physical activity interventions. Secondary analyses explored whether there were differences in physical activity, dietary intake, and the domains of hunger, dietary disinhibition, or dietary restraint in response to different physical activity interventions and by pattern of weight change across 6 months of an intervention. Participants (N = 207; age: 44.8 ± 8.2 years; body mass index: 27.0 ± 1.7 kg/mExcess weight and adiposity are associated with chronic health conditions that include cardiovascular disease, diabetes, some forms of cancer, musculoskeletal disorders, and others [The 2018 United States Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory Committee reported that physical activity is associated with reduced risk for weight gain in adults, suggesting that physical activity may be important for public health efforts to prevent weight gain and the development of obesity [One factor that may contribute to weight regulation is whether there is a concomitant change in dietary intake and eating behaviors with physical activity [In addition to measures of energy intake being examined in studies of chronic physical activity, it may also be important to examine psychosocial constructs that may contribute to eating behavior. This may include measures of hunger, dietary disinhibition, and dietary restraint (conscious attempt to limit and monitor food intake) [This study conducted a secondary analysis of data from an intervention study that initially examined different doses of physical activity on weight change in adults with overweight [
