Summary

The investigators propose to conduct a randomized controlled trial assessing the impact of phone-based extended care delivered on an ADAPTIVE (when participants are at "high risk" for weight regain as assessed by a predictive algorithm) vs. STATIC (gold-standard, once-per-month frequency) schedule on weight loss maintenance. The study team will provide participants with an initial behavioral weight management program, and then randomize participants who successfully achieve a clinically-significant weight loss of ≥5% to one of the two extended-care conditions

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

ADAPTIVE Extended-Care Program

Each extended-care intervention phone call will be initiated by the interventionist, and will begin with a brief check-in followed by a discussion of any barriers experienced by participants in meeting their weight maintenance goals. Each call will end with a formal goal setting session. Calls are expected to last for approximately 10-20 minutes.

BEHAVIORAL

STATIC Extended-Care Program

Each extended-care intervention phone call will be initiated by the interventionist, and will begin with a brief check-in followed by a discussion of any barriers experienced by participants in meeting their weight maintenance goals. Each call will end with a formal goal setting session. Calls are expected to last for approximately 10-20 minutes.
