The goal of this clinical trial is to compare weight change and other related outcomes associated with three different behavioral weight loss interventions (STANDARD Behavioral, PREVENT, and PROMOTE) in adults with obesity. The main questions it aims to answer are:

| STANDARD Behavioral | Active Comparator | This is a 12-month Internet-delivered behavioral weight loss (iBWL) program that has been used in numerous studies and is currently considered our 'standard' treatment. Participants are asked to adhere to calorie and physical activity (PA) goals and are required to self-monitor weight, intake, and PA daily via a study website. Participants will have a training session prior to beginning iBWL to learn about the website and their specific weight-related goals. The iBWL includes 3 months of weekly video lessons teaching skills to modify eating and PA behaviors. These lessons and individualized feedback to participants incorporate key BWL strategies. Participants will then have a 'refresher' training session at 3 months to discuss standard behavioral weight loss strategies and help control for contact across arms. For the remainder of the program (months 4-12) participants will have monthly lessons, self-monitoring (tracking calories and PA 1 wk/month) and feedback. |
|
| PREVENT | Experimental | This is a 12-month Internet-delivered behavioral weight loss (iBWL) program in which participants are asked to adhere to calorie and physical activity (PA) goals and are required to self-monitor weight, intake, and PA daily via a study website. Additionally, PREVENT uses a future-oriented cognitive strategy featuring Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) to focus on long-term negative consequences of unhealthy choices. Participants will receive training in PREVENT strategies prior to beginning iBWL. The iBWL includes 3 months of weekly video lessons teaching skills to modify eating and PA behaviors. These lessons and individualized feedback to participants are framed according to PREVENT (i.e., focusing on avoiding long-term consequences of unhealthy choices) and include specific exercises and reminders to use the strategy. Participants will then have a 'refresher' training session at 3 months, followed by monthly lessons, self-monitoring (tracking calories and PA 1 wk/month) and feedback. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Percent Weight Change at 3 months | Weight change is the primary outcome in this trial and will be calculated as change from baseline. | 3 months after randomization |
| Percent Weight Change at 6 months | Weight change is the primary outcome in this trial and will be calculated as change from baseline. | 6 months after randomization |
| Percent Weight Change at 12 months | Weight change is the primary outcome in this trial and will be calculated as change from baseline. | 12 months after randomization |
| Percent Weight Change Post-Treatment | Post-treatment weight change will be calculated as percent weight change observed at the 18 month assessment (6 months following treatment completion) | 18 months after randomization |

| Change in Actigraph-measured Physical Activity (PA) | To address Secondary Aim 1, physical activity (PA) will be objectively-measured for 1 week at baseline, 3m, 12m, and 18m using ActigraphGT9X Link. Participants will be instructed to wear the accelerometer on their waist during all waking hours, exclusive of bathing and swimming, for 7 consecutive days. This monitor uses a validated triaxial accelerometer and proprietary data filtering technology to estimate free-living PA and sedentary behaviors. Accelerometer data will be processed and analyzed using Actigraph's ActiLife software. Data will be considered valid if the monitor was worn for more than 10 hours on more than 4 days (including one or more weekend day). Intensity will be assessed as average counts per minute (cpm) and previously validated cut points (Freedson et al., 1998) will be used to identify bout-related moderate-to-vigorous intensity PA (greater than or equal to 1952 cpm accumulated in bouts greater than or equal to 10 min) and sedentary time (less than 100 cpm). |

| PROMOTE | Experimental | This is a 12-month Internet-delivered behavioral weight loss (iBWL) program in which participants are asked to adhere to calorie and physical activity (PA) goals and are required to self-monitor weight, intake, and activity daily via a study website. Additionally, PROMOTE uses a future-oriented cognitive strategy featuring Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) to focus on long-term benefits of healthy choices. Participants will receive cognitive training in PROMOTE prior to beginning iBWL. The iBWL includes 3 months of weekly video lessons teaching skills to modify eating and activity behaviors. These lessons and individualized feedback to participants are framed according to PROMOTE (i.e., focusing on achieving long-term benefits of healthy choices) and include specific exercises and reminders to use the strategy. Participants will then have a 'refresher' training at 3 months, followed by monthly lessons, self-monitoring (tracking calories and PA 1 wk/month), and feedback. |

| Change in Dietary Recall | Diet will be measured through 3, non-consecutive 24-hour diet recalls at baseline, 3m, 12m, and 18m. Recalls will be collected on two weekdays and one weekend at each time point with the first recall collected during the in-person assessment and the subsequent two recalls collected via phone. A trained interviewer will collect recalls using Nutrition Data Systems for Research (NDSR 2018; Nutrition Coordinating Center, University of Minnesota). NDSR uses a multipass method which provides participants multiple opportunities to recall each consumed food/beverage and reduces reporting biases. Given issues with use of dietary recalls to determine absolute energy intake, NDSR output will be used to examine changes in energy density and diet quality, as measured by the Healthy Eating Index, 2015 (HEI-2015). Component scores will highlight changes in intake of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins as well as calories from alcohol, added sugars and energy-dense snacks. | 12 months after randomization |
| Intervention Adherence - lessons viewed | Intervention adherence will be assessed automatically via the study website during the entire 12-month iBWL treatment program. Outcome measures will include number of website number of intervention videos viewed. | 12 months after randomization |
| Intervention Adherence - self-monitoring | Intervention adherence will be assessed automatically via the study website during the entire 12-month iBWL treatment program. Outcome measures will include number of website number of self-monitoring entries during the weight loss program. | 12 months after randomization |
