Assessing Follow up Trajectories in Eating, Routines, and Weight After GLP-1 (AFTER-GLP)
Many people who use GLP-1 medications (such as semaglutide or tirzepatide) achieve meaningful weight loss, but maintaining that weight loss off after stopping the medication can be very challenging. Researchers at Tufts University are conducting a study to learn whether a digital lifestyle program can help people maintain their weight loss after they stop taking a GLP-1 medication.
Adults who have recently stopped a GLP-1 medication may be eligible to participate. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive access to a digital program or to continue with usual care. The study lasts 12 months and is fully remote. All participants will receive a Bluetooth scale to track weight from home and will complete short online questionnaires several times over the year.
By taking part, participants can help researchers better understand how to support long-term weight maintenance in a way that is affordable, accessible, and sustainable. Participants are compensated for their time, and involvement may help improve care for others with similar experiences.

干预/治疗 |
|---|---|
|
实验性的：Noom® Smart device Application Subscription
|
Noom® provides well-established behavioral strategies for weight loss and weight maintenance, such as self-monitoring of diet, exercise, and weight.
What Noom® adds is education on the physiological, psychological, social, and environmental factors that influence eating behavior and tools that increase self-efficacy for dealing with those stimuli.
For example, Noom® has a lesson that defines social triggers, explains the influence social triggers have on motivation to eat, and asks the participant to identify their own social triggers and a plan for managing triggers should they come up.
Then the app prompts participants to report back on how they managed or struggled to manage a trigger and responds accordingly.
Participants will be prescribed 15 minutes of use per day per Noom® recommendations, which includes interactive lessons, food logging, and weigh-ins.

无干预：Usual care
Usual care for weight loss maintenance includes ongoing nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle counseling.
However, the implementation of this standard of care is highly variable and dependent on the provider's discretion and availability.
In many cases it is nothing.
In some cases, the patient may have 1-2 office or remote visits with a provider or dietitian who educates the patient on nutrition and exercise behaviors.
"Usual care" is left to each providers' discretion and will identify how much counseling (if any) participants receive through self-report.
