What women seek in weight loss: the search for new approaches

A new study has found that the average woman tries to lose weight seven times over their lifespan — but fails six times.

The recent double-blinded poll of 2,000 U.S. women between the ages of 30 and 65 conducted by Talker Research on behalf of Boston Scientific found that 78% have tried to lose weight before, but many struggle to reach their weight loss goals.
