Summary

This randomized pilot trial will compare two approaches to dietary self-monitoring for weight loss in the context of a low-intensity, remotely-delivered lifestyle modification program. Participants (N=40) will be randomized to perform detailed self-monitoring of all food and drink consumed each day or a reduced frequency, partial prescription involving recording only a subset of daily intake. The investigators will compare differences in weight loss as well as on relevant mechanistic, behavioral outcomes between groups at 12 weeks.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Reduced Frequency Self-Monitoring

Participants will be asked to record only a subset of daily eating throughout the intervention, with the prescription for self-monitoring individually tailored at baseline dependent on participants' self-reported eating patterns.

BEHAVIORAL

Full-Frequency Self-Monitoring

Participants will be asked to record all contents of their diet throughout the intervention.

BEHAVIORAL

Standard Behavioral Treatment

Participants will receive four individual coaching calls over 12 weeks. During coaching calls, participants will receive guidance on lowering calorie intake, increasing physical activity and use of specific behavioral strategies to increase the probability of success with weight loss.
