Addressing Place and People Micro Environments in Weight Loss Disparities

Usual care is not considered an intervention. This arm of the study involves a lifestyle coaching intervention delivered in primary care sites to the subjects.

The intervention is a just in time eating or physical activity reminder. Each individual participant reports physical activity goals as well as times that they most often eat. This information is used to select for that individual the best time to send an eating or physical activity reminder. The reminders come to the participant's smartphone or a study provided smartphone. Participants will receive reminder 2 to 4 times per day depending on their goals and behavior pattern.
