Study Summary

Purpose: Compare the efficacy of two 3-month Internet-based interventions that use a simplified strategy for monitoring of dietary intake among young adult men and women with overweight or obesity. Participants: Young adult men and women who are between the ages of 18-35 years (N=75) and who currently have overweight or obesity (BMI between 25 and 50 kg/m\^2). Procedures (methods): This is a randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy of two Internet-based dietary interventions among 75 young adult men and women who currently have overweight or obesity. Both interventions will use simplified monitoring of dietary intake using an approach based on the Traffic Light Diet. One intervention will target a reduction in intake of red foods (high-calorie, high-fat foods) and tracking of red foods in the study website. The other intervention will target an increase in intake of green foods (low-calorie, healthy foods) and tracking of green foods in the study website. Components of both interventions include (1) personalized goals for red/green food intake, (2) weekly tailored feedback, and (3) weekly lessons delivered via smartphone.

Primary Outcome

Adherence will be assessed via frequency of dietary monitoring. Each food entry will be time-stamped and automatically captured by the study website interface. Frequency of dietary monitoring will be defined as the total number of days during the 3-month intervention that participants tracked breakfast or lunch AND dinner, which will be considered a full (versus partial) day of tracking.
