| Eligible participants are randomly assigned to one of two 6-month Internet-based weight loss programs offered by Weight Watchers Online. Participants will attend an initial orientation session to learn about the study. They will then attend an assessment session for measurement of height and weight, and to complete questionnaires. At this visit, participants will also learn which of the two online programs they will test. Participants will then be asked to attend research visits 3 and 6 months later to collect follow-up information. |
