often in small groups for social support

weekly 60-90 min/session; 6-12 months

begin with private weigh in to establish baseline

patient self monitors past week's behaviors

feedback provided immediately about progress regression

helps patient link behavior to outcome!!!

problem solve for solutions next week - group treatment



challenge of treatment and a solution - reinforcing value of successful progress not always apparent (ex:
discouraged after only losing .5 lbs)



focus on positive behaviors (ex: meeting exercise goals) RATHER than outcome (weight) and focus on
long term



intensive family-based behavioral pediatric treatment evidence - effective



long-term weight maintenance in intensive family-based behavioral pediatric treatment more likely if: - -
