Summary

This study tests a new program called ROC+ for people who are very responsive to food cues (like seeing or smelling food). It compares ROC+ to standard behavioral weight loss programs. 300 adults with overweight or obesity and high food responsiveness will participate. The goal is to see if ROC+ helps reduce body mass index and food cravings more effectively.
