Summary

This study compares two approaches to help rural adults with obesity lose weight. One method involves quarterly one-on-one visits with a primary care doctor. The other adds a group lifestyle program over Zoom plus quarterly team meetings with the doctor and a lifestyle coach. Researchers will track weight loss over 18 months in 560 participants to see which method works better.
