Summary
This study tests a smartphone app called eTRIP, which uses artificial intelligence to help people with overweight or obesity make healthier food choices and stick to their weight loss goals. Some participants also wear a continuous glucose monitor for 10 days to see how their blood sugar responds to meals. The goal is to see if these tools help people lose weight and improve their eating habits over 10 weeks.
