Summary

The purpose of the study is to provide tele-nutrition counseling after a spinal cord injury (SCI). During the three months of participation, subjects will be given an iPad and the iPad will be used to record meals using a photo journal application, YouAte. In addition, subjects will receive dietary advice two times a month with a registered dietitian (RD). The dietitian role in the study will be to educate healthy weight management and accommodate any cultural and behavioral habits. The objective of this study is to show that the proposed tele-nutrition program will be effective with weight management through 3-month tele-nutrition counseling via iPad FaceTime. The hypotheses are 1) that weight and waist circumference will not increase after 3 months of tele-nutrition program, 2) quality of life will improve, and 3) quality of diet will improve.
