Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The goals of the study are:
1. To evaluate effects of a manualized intervention on Weight and Shape Concern prior to starting weight management.
2. To evaluate the effects of the modified Body Project intervention on momentary weight/shape-related thoughts and overeating episodes during behavioral weight management.
3. To conduct exploratory analyses comparing effects of the two treatment conditions on weight loss and other weight-related behaviors (e.g., exercise, adherence to self-monitoring).

Modified Body Project
Participants will receive this four week intervention followed by 6 months of behavioral weight management
Modified Body Project
The Body Project, an evidence-based body image intervention developed for young women at risk for eating pathology, was adapted for use among adult women with high weight and shape concern and high body weight who want to lose weight.
Lifestyle intervention for weight loss
This 24-week behavioral weight management program is based on the Look AHEAD and Diabetes Prevention Program manuals. It is designed to facilitate 7-10% weight loss of initial body weight through dietary and physical activity changes with use of behavioral strategies to support lifestyle changes over time.
