Participants randomized to the ADAPTIVE extended-care program will receive extended-care intervention phone delivered only if either 1) an algorithm developed by our study team detects that a participant is at "high risk" for weight regain or 2) the participant self-initiates a request for a session.

Participants randomized to the STATIC extended-care program will receive the extended-care intervention phone calls on a fixed, once-per-month schedule (the schedule currently used in gold-standard weight maintenance programs).

Each extended-care intervention phone call will be initiated by the interventionist, and will begin with a brief check-in followed by a discussion of any barriers experienced by participants in meeting their weight maintenance goals. Each call will end with a formal goal setting session. Calls are expected to last for approximately 10-20 minutes.

Participant body weight will be measured at baseline, Month 4, Month 12, and Month 24 using study-provided BodyTrace e-scales. Participants will be asked to measure their weight first thing in the morning on a scheduled assessment day, before having anything to eat or drink but after using the restroom, in no more than light indoor clothing and with pockets emptied and shoes removed. Analyses will examine difference in weight change from Month 4 to 24 by group, controlling for initial weight loss (i.e., weight change from baseline to Month 4). Thus, although the outcome (weight) is assessed at each time point, the primary outcome is only a single comparison. Weight in kg at each time point are reported below (using intent-to-treat analyses, with multiple imputation used to handle missing data) along with the difference in weight change from Month 4 to Month 24 by group (Month 24 weight - Month 4 weight), controlling for initial weight loss (Month 4 weight - Baseline weight).

These numbers differ from numbers reported under participant flow as we conducted intent-to-treat analyses, using all available data from all participant and multiple imputation used to handle missing data (see statistical analysis plan)
