OBJECTIVE: The objective was to examine whether having a weight loss experience that lives up to one's expectations is related to maintenance in a group of successful weight losers participating in the STOP Regain trial. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES: Participants (N = 314, 81% women, mean age, 51.3 +/- 10.1 years; BMI = 28.6 +/- 4.8 kg/m(2)) who lost >/=10% of their body weight within the past 2 years were randomly assigned to a maintenance program delivered either face-to-face or via the Internet or to a control group and assessed at 0, 6, 12, and 18 months. RESULTS: At study entry, participants had lost 19% of their body weight, yet 86% of participants were currently trying to lose more weight. Further losses of 13% of body weight were needed to reach self-selected ideal weights, with heavier participants wanting to lose more (p < 0.001). The weight loss-related benefits participants achieved did not live up to their expectations (p
