Study Summary

In this 3-month pilot study, we will introduce to 40 adolescents "at risk for overweight" (i.e., a BMI/age \>85th percentile) a structured meal plan consisting of meal replacements, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein and dairy products. We will encourage and invite at least one parent to the scheduled visits, however, no subject will be eliminated because of lack of parental involvement. In this study, we will conduct behavior modification group sessions using lessons which are structured and patterned after the suggestions documented in the LEARNÒ Program for Weight Control. Diet instruction by a registered dietitian will include the appropriate use of meal replacements for a low-fat, low-calorie meal plan. Portion sizes of all foods recommended will be reviewed and a structured meal plan will be developed by the dietitian for subjects to follow. Subjects will return on a weekly basis for behavioral modification groups sessions in conjunction with the liquid meal replacement diet. Blood work and physical examinations will occur pre and post intervention.
