Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the short-term effect of a technology based weight reduction program for obese (BMI \> 30 kg/m2) adults in a primary care office.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Participant between the ages of 18-65 years.
- Participant with a BMI (Body Mass Index \> 30.0 kg/m2)
- Have access and use email a minimum of 2-days per week.
Exclusion
- Participant is not pregnant or lactating: Weight loss is not recommended for pregnant women and extra energy requirements are essential for fetal development (Butte, Wong, Treuth, Ellis, \& O'Brian Smith, 2004; Durnin, 1991).
- Participant is not currently participating in any structured/self-help weight loss program. The elimination of individuals actively participating in a current weight loss program will reduce the potential of a carry-over effect from these weight loss modalities (Fife-Shaw, 2006).
- Participant has not attempted weight loss in the past 3 months. Same as number two.
