The Mobile Lifestyle Intervention for Food and Exercise Study

The goal of the study is to examine long term sustained weight loss digital intervention in a diverse cohort of adults with overweight/obesity. The intervention includes social gaming (using game-like elements in nongame contexts to promote supportive social interactions and openness to positive behavioral influences) to reward behaviors, such as self-monitoring and social support. Investigators will accomplish objectives and test hypotheses by following two specific primary aims: 1. Determine if the intervention plus gaming produces significantly more weight loss at 12 months than the same intervention without gaming among 240 adults with overweight or obesity and ≥3 T2DM risk factors. 2. Examine the differences in social support provision and receipt between groups at 12 months.
