Three months of standard, group-based behavioral treatment for weight loss and nine months of remote individual behavioral treatment based on self-report.
Gold Standard Behavior Therapy for Weight Loss: Group-based behavioral treatment for weight loss, with a standard emphasis on diet (65% of session) and physical activity goals (25% of session). Other weight loss behaviors such as self monitoring will be covered in the remaining time (10% of session). Participants will be asked to utilize digital monitoring devices for physical activity, weight, and diet. Coaches will not have access to the digital data that participants provide on physical activity, weight, and diet monitoring devices.
Standard Remote Behavior Therapy for Weight Loss: Individual, monthly, brief phone calls with coach and weekly text messages. The content of these calls and messages will be determined by participant self-report. Coaches will not have access to the digital data that participants provide on physical activity, weight, and diet monitoring devices.

Timeframe: 13-52 weeksUse of digital devices; percent of days during which weight, food, and steps were counted in Phase II. Percent calculated for each group (LM vs. LM+Share) and not for individual participants. We determined percent to be the metric that would be most easily interpreted and it accounted for any possible variability in total number of days of observations.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 52 weeksChange in "Perceptions of Accountability" subscale of the Supportive Accountability Scale. The measure used was a 10-item scale on which participants rated the extent to which they agreed with statements on a 7-point likert scale. A total score was generated by summing scores from individual items. Total scores ranged from 10-70 with higher scorings indicating higher perceived accountability. The outcome measure reported here is the change in total score on this measure (decrease) across Phase II where a negative score reflects a decrease in perceived accountability.
