Dieting and unhealthy weight control behaviors during adolescence: associations with 10-year changes in body mass index.
TL;DR: Findings clearly indicate that dieting and unhealthy weight control behaviors, as reported by adolescents, predict significant weight gain over time.

Intuitive eating in young adults. Who is doing it, and how is it related to disordered eating behaviors?
TL;DR: Clinicians should discuss the concept of intuitive eating with their young adult patients to promote healthier weight-related outcomes, and find that intuitive eating practices are inversely associated with a number of harmful outcomes.

Dieting and restrained eating as prospective predictors of weight gain
TL;DR: Recent dieting in non-obese individuals may be a valuable proxy of susceptibility to weight gain and this easily assessed characteristic could identify individuals for whom obesity prevention interventions would be particularly appropriate.

TL;DR: This article investigated whether the paradoxical weight gain associated with dieting is better related to genetic propensity to weight gain than to the weight loss episodes themselves, and found that frequent IWLs reflect susceptibility to future weight gain.
