Study Summary

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends a staged approach for pediatric practices to manage the growing problem of pediatric overweight and obesity, starting with Stage 1, Prevention Plus, which encourages families to improve basic lifestyle choices related to eating and activity in order to improve BMI status. This study will test the effectiveness of an innovative FITLINE telephone counseling program for overweight and obese 8-12 year olds seen in pediatric practices where nutritionists coach parents in improving their child's diet and physical activity, to reduce BMI. If found to be effective, the FITLINE program will provide a model for widespread implementation of Stage 1, Prevention Plus of the AAP expert committee recommendations through pediatric practices nationwide.
