The mHealth Obesity Wellness Intervention (MOWI) will be informed by the previous Aim (Aim 1) of this proposal. It will consist of a 12-week, 3x/week program of: weekly nutrition counseling; 2x/week group exercise visits. A dietician and physical therapist will lead the in-person sessions. A wave of 8 individuals each will be assessed at 0, 4, 8 and 12 weeks.
Participants who successfully completed the initial MOWI program will be offered the opportunity to participate in a 6-month weight management program. This program will consist of 8 group-based skills workshop sessions occurring approximately once monthly (every 3 weeks), which will be 90-120 minutes in length. The overall structure of the program will emphasize the following evidence-based weight management components: Goal setting/action planning, self-monitoring, receiving feedback regarding performance, reviewing relevant goals in the light of feedback, and e. psychological skills for increasing behavioral commitment (acceptance, willingness, thought monitoring, mindful decision making, and values clarification).
