Interventions

This behavioral weight loss intervention will span 16 weeks. The first session (Week 1) will be a virtual "Weight Loss 101" group kick-off followed by 15 weeks of a technology-mediated program consisting of the following: weekly emailed content (videos and readings explaining key skills and strategies to produce weight loss) and weekly emailed tailored feedback (based on self-monitoring data from participants). A trained interventionist ("coach") will lead the group session, provide weekly tailored feedback, and monitor participant progress.
