Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
1 . Adapt and pilot the previously studied 32-session, 13-month MOVE UP intervention to a streamlined 12-session (4-month) community-based translational behavioral weight management program. The pilot program will be delivered by a staff interventionist.
2\. Implement and evaluate the program's impact on weight and healthy lifestyle changes, including physical performance outcomes, at 2 sites, each with at least 6 eligible obese and caregiving adults ages 50-75 years old.

MOVE UP for Caregivers
12-week lifestyle intervention focusing on diet and activity
MOVE UP
Each of the 12 group sessions will focus on incremental behavioral strategies for maintaining healthy eating, activity, and weight loss.behaviors. Body weight will be measured in-person session and participants will also to measure their body weight on their in Session 3, participants are given physical activity goal of 10 minutes/day, 50 minutes/week. The goal is raised by 5 minutes/day, 25 minutes/week every other session, the final goal being 30 minutes/day, 150 minutes/week. All subjects will be recommended to engage in an energy restricted dietary intervention that evidence demonstrates has effectively reduced body weight by 5-7% within the initial 4 months of the intervention. This will include reducing energy intake to 1200 to 1800 kcal/d based on initial body weight (\<200 pounds = 1200 kcal/d; 200 to 250 pounds = 1500 kcal/d; \>250 pounds = 1800 kcal/d).
