简要总结
Objectives*: Primary Objective: Aim 1: Examine the acceptability of tailored behavioral weight loss program and a standard program in men working in blue-collar occupations.
Aim 2: Compare recruitment approaches that vary on trust-based messaging to recruit men with overweight/obesity who work in blue-collar occupations.
Secondary Objectives: Determine the feasibility of retaining participants to a randomized trial over six months.
详细描述
Men working in blue-collar occupations have a high prevalence of overweight and obesity and have high rates of comorbidities associated with obesity. Unfortunately, these men are unlikely to participate in evidenced-based weight loss interventions. Further, few efficacious interventions have been developed that target this population for weight control. The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of tailored recruitment messages and a novel, tailored behavioral weight loss intervention in the context of a randomized trial.
