First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 23 times

Summary

This study looks at whether weighing yourself every day can help teenagers with obesity manage their weight. About 99 teens aged 12 to 18 will be split into three groups: one gets usual care, another adds a simple scale, and the third uses a smart scale that shares data with their doctor. Researchers will check if this approach is acceptable, safe, and helpful over 12 weeks.
