Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Low-income and minority women are at increased risk for postpartum weight retention (i.e. retaining weight after pregnancy) and consequent persistent obesity. Women who are obese pre-pregnancy are 3-5 times more likely to gain weight, rather than lose weight, in the postpartum period than non-obese women. Aims for this pilot study are listed below: Aim 1: To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a multi-component novel weight loss intervention delivered in a WIC setting to a population of low-income, predominantly racial/ethnic minority, obese, postpartum women. Aim 2: To evaluate differences in weight change, diet, physical activity, self-efficacy, readiness to change, motivations to eat between intervention and control participants to determine preliminary intervention efficacy over a 12-week period.
