Summary

This study is looking for people who have finished a weight loss program to share their thoughts on a mobile app that tracks food and drinks. Participants will join focus groups or interviews to discuss what they like and dislike about the app. The goal is to help doctors and app developers make the app more useful and appealing for people trying to manage their weight.
