Summary

U.S. Army Medical Research \& Materiel Command Telemedicine and Advanced Technology Research Center (TATRC) is sponsoring the HF2 (Healthy Families, Healthy Forces) Study. This is a randomized trial comparing two different interventions for sustainable weight loss. Specifically, the investigators will compare a "current best practice (CBP)" intervention that includes standard dietary advice with a new, "Healthy Weight for Living (HWL)" intervention that includes recommendations to eat a diet rich in protein, dietary fiber, low glycemic index carbohydrates and low calorie foods. The objective of this study is to compare the CBP and HWL interventions when delivered to adult dependents of active duty (AD) military personnel and measure weight loss effects in both the adult dependents and the AD military personnel they live with.
