The purpose of this study is to examine two approaches for improving long-term weight loss success. All participants will receive a 12-week, in-person standard behavioral weight loss program followed by either 12 weeks of yoga instruction or 12 weeks of cooking/dietary education instruction (determined via randomization procedures). Assessments of weight, physical activity, dietary behaviors, and psychosocial factors will occur at baseline, 3, and 6 months.
