Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The long-term goal of this work is to enhance well-being in kidney recipients via lifestyle self-management of care for dietary intake and physical activity to ultimately prevent chronic diseases. The proposed study is important because early weight gain after kidney transplant is associated with adverse effects on the transplanted kidney function resulting in increased health care cost and poor quality of life. Interventions are needed to monitor kidney transplant recipients diet and physical activity in real-time to prevent health decline.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
mHealth dietary app + health coaching intervention
A feasibility study will be utilized to establish the recruitment, retention, and adherence with post-kidney transplant recipients using a consumer-based mHealth dietary app + health coaching.
mHealth dietary app + health coaching intervention
The "Lose-It" app will be set up with Gmail accounts with unique unidentifiable codes developed by the research team. Participants be trained to enter their dietary intake and physical activity daily for 12-weeks. Participants will monitor their vegetable intake, fat intake, carbohydrate intake, weight, and blood pressure. Wi-Fi connected weight scales and blood pressure cuff will be supplied for weight and blood pressure monitoring. Participants will be taught how to sync the data from the scales and blood pressure cuff to the app for the research team to access. Participants will perform a return demonstration to confirm that they can record their dietary intake daily, physical activity, weight, and blood pressure using the "Lose-It" app. We also review with the participant the "My Plate" method for proper nutrition and the steps to distance conversion chart.
