Abstract
Self-reported anthropometric data in web-based weight loss interventions may be inaccurate. We studied the agreement between online self-reported and measured weight in the course of the POEmaS randomized controlled trial. Measured weight was not different from reported one (-0.4 kg; 95%CI -0.93 to 0.12). 95.6% of the cases were within the limits of agreement (Bland-Altman method). Self-reported weight collected online was accurate, which suggests that interventions and outcomes assessment can rely on these data.
