| Intervention group | Experimental | Participants will be assigned an individual diet & physical activity counselor through Healthways at Hopkins. This counselor will stay with the participant for the 24 months. The primary communication with the counselor will be via website & email. Participants will be encouraged to consume a low-calorie, low-salt diet with 7-12 daily servings of fruits, vegetables & low-fat dairy products. Calorie goals are based upon weight at study entry & whether or not the weight loss goal has been met. Participants will gradually build to ≥ 180 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity per week, using the activity of their own choosing & gradually adding bouts of ≥ 10 minutes in length. Monitoring & Counselor Contacts: the first 3 months, the participants are encouraged to log into the web hub on a daily basis to record weight, food intake, & physical activity. Participants who decline or drop out of the intervention program will remain on-study doing home visits & questionnaires. |
