Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
To achieve the long term goal of strengthening behavioral weight loss programs, the purpose of this project is to test an enhanced, daily weight tracking instruction against the current standard of care (weekly weight tracking) and an alternative mode of care (no weight tracking). The investigators postulate that daily weight tracking will boost ongoing awareness of and engagement in dietary intake and physical activity monitoring, thus improving weight loss outcomes. The central hypothesis of the study is that daily weight tracking will improve weight loss processes and outcomes relative to less frequent weight tracking, without adverse effects.
