Relationship Between Weight Outcome Evaluations and Weight Loss. Dashed line shows curvilinear (quadratic term) and solid line shows linear relationship between weight outcomes evaluations (average of "happy" and "acceptable" values) and weight loss (% of initial). Regression equation includes both linear and quadratic terms and R 2 change refers to the addition of the quadratic term into the model, after the linear term was already in the model.
