Preventing regain of lost weight is the most difficult challenge in the treatment of obesity. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases convened a workshop, “The Physiology of the Weight‐Reduced State,” on June 3 to 4, 2019, in order to explore the physiologic mechanisms of appetitive and metabolic adaptation that take place in the weight‐reduced state and counter an individual’s efforts to maintain reduced weight following weight loss.
