This purpose of this trial is to determine whether a 12-month eHealth behavioral intervention
that includes interactive self-monitoring and feedback, tailored skills training materials,
telephone counseling calls, and primary care physician (PCP) counseling will produce greater
weight change at 12 months than a standard primary care control.

This is a patient randomized trial in which patients will be randomized into one of two
treatment arms: 1) standard primary care; or 2) primary care plus a 12-month eHealth
behavioral intervention (iOTA), which includes interactive self-monitoring and feedback,
tailored skills training materials, 18 telephone counseling calls, and primary care provider
counseling. The primary outcome is weight change at 12 months. Participants will be 351 adult
male and female patients from local community health centers with obesity and a related
comorbidity.
