Provide Behavioral support to facilitate lifestyle change by a weight loss coach located at a centralized call center. Participants will be paired with an individual coach who will work with the participant through all phases of the 1-year weight loss program. The behavior change program will be based on Social Cognitive Theory, which hypothesizes that the interactions between environmental, personal and behavioral elements determine behavioral change (Bandura 1989); 2. Utilize a toolbox approach that will allow for tailoring the intervention to the individual participant. Examples of possible Toolbox solutions include: alternative dietary approaches, instructions for strength-training exercises.
