A Study of Lifestyle Intervention in Overweight or Obese Women With Early Stage Breast Cancer

Upon enrollment, the patient will be asked to meet with a dietitian to assess the individual patient's current diet and exercise routines. In the first session, the dietitian will provide individual counseling and together with the patient devise weight loss / exercise strategies that fit the patients' lifestyle. Following the initial assessment, patients will embark on a weekly program, with weekly meetings lasting 30min - 1h. Patients will be asked to record meal portions weekly in a Food Log (Appendix B), according to the established goal. At each meeting, the dietitian will review the Food Log with the patient and evaluate progress.
