Summary

This study will test an enhanced lifestyle behavioral weight management program that integrates pain coping strategies with a lifestyle intervention that we expect to enhance obese RA patient's ability to cope with pain-related weight challenges. In the proposed study, up to 120 obese (RA-BMI \> 28) rheumatoid arthritis patients will be consented in order to randomly assign 80 patients to one of two conditions: 1) an Enhanced Lifestyle Weight Management protocol or 2) standard care control. Patients randomized to the Enhanced Lifestyle Weight Management condition will participate in a 12-week protocol in which training in coping skills to increase self-efficacy and decrease the impact of RA pain on behavioral (e.g., activity, eating) and psychosocial (e.g., mood, relationships) weight loss factors will be integrated into a lifestyle behavioral weight loss intervention.
