Summary
ASPIRE has completed enrollment of patients at the Ann Arbor and Cleveland Medical Centers in a study that is examining the impact of an innovative approach to weight loss ("Aspiring to Lifelong Health in VA", aka "ASPIRE-VA"). ASPIRE-VA has 3 key features: 1) lifestyle coaches who encourage behavior change through a "small steps" approach; 2) a simplified "Stoplight" diet; and 3) user-friendly "enhanced" pedometers to help participants monitor their physical activity.
