Goal setting and monitoring. All BGM daughters will self-monitor their progress towards PA goals using a PA device, Fitbit®. Additionally, BGM daughters will self-monitor their progress towards diet goals using a mobile application, Start Simple with My Plate®. Further, all BGM mothers will use Fitbit® and Start Simple with My Plate® for self monitoring, however, mothers' data will not be analyzed for this study. Since the daughter/ mother relationship is critical to achieving behavioral change, BGM mothers will utilize Fitbit® and Start Simple with My Plate® as a mechanism to communicate, problem solve and support daughters' behavioral goals.BGM is situated within the contexts of environmental, cultural, interpersonal, and developmental factors impacted by structural racism.
