P.S. Not sure if phone coaching is for you--or is effective?
Here's the latest data, published in the February 2007 issue
of the International Journal of Obesity by Donnelly
et al.
Objective : To compare the efficacy of a phone vs.
a traditional face-to-face clinic approach to achieve 10% weight
loss and weight maintenance. Design: Twenty-six week, randomized,
controlled trial. Subjects: Twenty-four men and 72 women, ages
25-68 years, with a body mass index (BMI) of 33.2+/-3.8.Measurements:Weight
loss at 12 weeks and weight maintenance at 26 weeks were the
primary outcomes. Attendance, meal replacements (MRs), fruits/vegetables
(F/V), and physical activity (PA) were measured weekly for
process evaluation. Results: Median weight loss (range) from
baseline at 12 weeks was significantly different for phone
at 10.6 kg (16.6) or 10.4% and clinic at 12.7 kg (19.9) or
13.7%, and both were significantly different when compared
with the control group with a weight loss of 0.25 kg (5.6)
or 0.24%. Median weight loss at 26 weeks was 12.8 kg (23.4)
or 13.0% from baseline for the phone group and 12.5 kg (35.2)
or 12.6% from baseline for the clinic group (P>0.05).
Conclusion: The median weight loss for both phone
and clinic groups at 12 and 26 weeks exceeded the NHLBI guideline
of 10% weight loss from baseline. The phone approach may be
a viable option to the traditional weight management clinic
for both service providers and participants.
