Summary

Using a design-for-dissemination approach, this application proposes to use combined methods to adapt and pilot test an interactive obesity treatment approach (iOTA) for obesity prevention in early serious mental illness (eSMI) that uses text messaging to provide between-visit support. Derived from the lifestyle intervention used in the Diabetes Prevention Program, the parent iOTA targets diet, activity and adherence using web-based and health coach support.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

iOTA text messaging intervention

Over 6 months, participants in the iOTA arm will have monthly in-person visits with a health coach who will work with the participant to set goals for the upcoming month related to healthy eating and activity. The participant will receive daily text message health tips related to their goals, and will be prompted once a week to respond with a text indicating their weight and how they are doing with their goals. Following the 6-month active treatment phase, participants will receive text messages only for another 3 months.

BEHAVIORAL

Health Education text messaging intervention

Over 6 months, participants in the Health Ed arm will also have monthly in-person visits with a health coach who will provide education on energy balance and problem-solving. Specific goals will not be set, but the health coach will assist participants in problem-solving any challenges. Participants will receive a weekly automated motivational text message health tip from the study related to what they learned in their health coaching sessions. Following the 6-month active treatment phase, participants will receive text messages only for another 3 months.
