Summary

This study tests a mobile health program designed to help young U.S. Air Force personnel prevent weight gain over two years. About 350 active-duty members aged 18-39 with a BMI between 21 and 30 will use a smartphone app and a Fitbit tracker. The goal is to see if this approach can keep them from gaining weight, which is a serious issue in the military.
