    Input: Background Few studies have explored the relationship between weight bias and weight loss treatment outcomes . Purpose This investigation examined the relationship between implicit and explicit weight bias and ( a ) program attrition , ( b ) weight loss , ( c ) self-monitoring adherence , ( d ) daily exercise levels and overall caloric expenditure , ( e ) daily caloric intake , and ( f ) daily caloric deficit among overweight/obese treatment-seeking adults . Methods Forty-six overweight/obese adults ( body mass index ≥ 27 kg/m2 ) participating in an 18-week , stepped-care , behavioral weight loss program completed implicit and explicit measures of weight bias .  Participants were instructed to self-monitor and electronically report  daily energy intake , exercise , and energy expenditure . Results Greater weight bias was associated with inconsistent self-monitoring , greater caloric intake , lower energy expenditure and exercise , creation of a smaller caloric deficit , higher program attrition , as well as less weight loss during the self-help phase of the stepped-care treatment . Conclusions Weight bias may interfere with overweight/obese treatment-seeking adults ' ability to achieve optimal health An implicit association test ( IAT ) measures differential association of 2 target concepts with an attribute . The 2 concepts appear in a 2-choice task ( 2-choice task ( e.g. , flower vs. insect names ) , and the attribute in a 2nd task ( e.g. , pleasant vs. unpleasant words for an evaluation attribute ) . When instructions oblige highly associated categories ( e.g. , flower + pleasant ) to share a response key , performance is faster than when less associated categories ( e.g. , insect & pleasant ) share a key . This performance difference implicitly measures differential association of the 2 concepts with the attribute . In 3 experiments , the IAT was sensitive to ( a ) near-universal evaluative differences ( e.g. , flower vs. insect ) , ( b ) expected individual differences in evaluative associations ( Japanese + pleasant vs. Korean + pleasant for Japanese vs. Korean subjects ) , and ( c ) consciously disavowed evaluative differences ( Black + pleasant vs. White + pleasant for self-described unprejudiced White subjects ) 
    Output:
    
Weight stigma was positively associated with obesity , diabetes risk , cortisol level , oxidative stress level , C-reactive protein level , eating disturbances , depression , anxiety , body image dissatisfaction and negatively associated with self-esteem among overweight and obese adults .
Weight stigma is associated with adverse physiological and psychological outcomes .
