Inclusion Criteria:
- ages of 21-55 years
- Body mass index (BMI) between 25-39.9 kg/m2
Exclusion Criteria:
- Currently pregnant, pregnant in the last 6 months, or plan on becoming pregnant in the next 6 months.
- Currently participating in regular exercise for over 60 minutes/week.
- Taking any medications that affect body weight or metabolism (e.g. synthroid).
- Have any physical limitations that would prevent exercise.
- Currently being treated for coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, or cancer.
- Have a history of myocardial infarction or other heart-related surgeries.
- Have a resting systolic blood pressure > 150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure of > 100 mmHg or currently taking any medications that affect blood pressure or heart rate (e.g. beta blockers).
- Currently enrolled in a commercial weight loss program, participating in another weight loss study, or in a weight loss study in the last 12 months.
- Have lost > 5% of current body weight in the past 6 months.
- Currently being treated for any psychological problems or taking any psychotropic medication.
- Currently do not have access to a computer and the Internet that can be used for this study. This requires a PC computer, the ability to load software for the technology system, an existing internet connection provided by the participant, and a dedicated USB port to allow the armband from the technology system to be connected to the computer for the download of information.

Maßnahmenbeschreibung |
Zeitfenster |
|---|---|---|
|
cardiorespiratory fitness
Zeitfenster: 0, 6, 12, months
|
A graded exercise test on a treadmill along with indirect calorimetry will be used to measure cardiorespiratory fitness.
This will provide a measure of oxygen consumption and metabolic equivalents of work at the time of test termination.
|
0, 6, 12, months
|
|
body composition
Zeitfenster: 0, 6, 12 months
|
Body composition will be assessed using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).
This will provide a measure of lean body mass, fat mass, bone mineral content, and percent body fat.
|
0, 6, 12 months
|
|
physical activity
Zeitfenster: 0, 6, 12 months
|
A questionnaire and a portable device worn on the upper arm will be used to measure and quantify energy expenditure from physical activity.
|
0, 6, 12 months
|
|
dietary intake
Zeitfenster: 0, 6, 12 months
|
A questionnaire will be used to assess self-reported food intake.
This will be used to estimate calories, dietary fat, protein, and carbohydrates consumed.
|
0, 6, 12 months
|
|
psychosocial and behavioral measures
Zeitfenster: 0, 6, 12 months
|
Questionnaires will be used to assess self-efficacy for weight loss and physical activity, barriers to physical activity and weight loss, expected outcomes resulting from physical activity and weight loss, perceived body image, depressive symptomotology, weight history, dietary disinhibition and restraint, and behaviors typically related to weight loss (e.g., self-weighing, meal planning, etc.).
