NCT00962325

Brief Summary

For the growing number of severely obese individuals, there are currently few effective long-term weight control options with the exception of bariatric surgery. However, behavioral factors including low physical activity can undermine successful surgical outcomes. This study will compare the effects of a behavioral physical activity intervention with a standard care control condition on changes in physical activity among inactive adult bariatric surgery patients.

Study Arms (2)

Activity behaviors counseling

EXPERIMENTAL
Behavioral: Intervention to increase physical activity

Standard care control

NO INTERVENTION

6 weeks of standard preoperative care

Interventions

This will be a 6-week preoperative intervention to increase structured walking activity. This will be accomplished through weekly individual face-to-face sessions involving tailored instruction in use of standard behavior change strategies such as self-monitoring, goal-setting, stimulus control, etc.
