Summary

The goal of the project is to test a remotely delivered, standalone behavioral weight loss intervention designed to help adults initiate the important dietary, physical activity (PA) and behavioral changes necessary to achieve weight loss.

Detailed description

The Weight Management Center currently offers a remotely delivered (smart phone, tablet, computer) program to assist patients with maintaining weight losses already achieved, which includes multi-channel self-monitoring and asynchronous individually recorded feedback from clinical staff. The goal of the presently proposed project is to build on this existing maintenance-focused program to create a remotely delivered, standalone behavioral weight loss intervention designed to help participants initiate the important dietary, physical activity (PA) and behavioral changes necessary to achieve weight loss. We recently developed the Home Weight Loss (HWL) program by repackaging existing clinical educational materials as instructional lifestyle change modules to be delivered remotely for participant weight loss The aim of the proposed project are to pilot test the effects of the HWL program among a sample of overweight and obese adults (N=30). The digital platform currently used in the maintenance program will be used for the HWL program
