Weight Loss Intervention Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will take part in supervised exercise and home-based exercise sessions. Participants will be asked to follow a specific diet. Participants will be asked to take part in weekly behavioral group phone calls.

Behavioral: Supervised ExerciseBehavioral: Home-based ExerciseBehavioral: Group Phone CallsBehavioral: Diet

Interventions

Participants will take part in supervised exercise activities two times per week at a YMCA. Length of the activity will be increased during participation in study. Participants will start at 40 minutes per week and work their way up to 120 minutes per week.

Weight Loss Intervention Group

Aerobic exercise activities to be completed at home. Participants will be asked to start out doing 60 minutes at home and work up to 180 minutes of purposeful aerobic home exercise per week.

Weight Loss Intervention Group

Once weekly phone calls that are group-based. The calls will discuss lifestyle changes specific to participants and cover the effects of diet, physical activity, and weight on breast cancer risk, as well as body image and emotional eating.

Weight Loss Intervention Group
DietBEHAVIORAL

Participants will consume a nutritionally balanced, reduced calorie diet as recommended by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
