Behavioral CVD Prevention Using Informatics

Up to 12 sessions of behavioral counseling using motivational interviewing techniques focused on diet and physical activity behaviors over a 12 week period. Counselors will be guided in their sessions by a computer program called CuesWeight. Participants also receive text messages to enable participants to track their behaviors; this information is relayed to the counselors to inform the counseling sessions.

All participants receive a brief printed feedback report displaying their current levels of nutrition and physical activity behaviors and tips for meeting recommended guidelines.
