Self-monitoring in weight loss: a systematic review of the literature

What this work gives Aellic

22 studies, 15 of them on dietary self-monitoring: a significant association between self-monitoring and weight loss was found consistently, but the authors grade the level of evidence as weak (mostly white, female samples; reliance on self-report). It supports logging intake, not any specific calorie target.
