This paper presents follow-up results from 52 individuals who signed behavioral contracts to adhere to the AHA dietary guidelines for cholesterol reduction. Data are presented to address the following questions: a) How do demographic variables and baseline body weight and serum cholesterol relate to initial contract signing and level of contract adherence? b) Do those individuals who successfully achieve their contract goals to adopt the AHA diet also experience a reduction in serum cholesterol? c) How well have initial cholesterol reduction achievements been maintained at a two-year follow-up?
