What this study is about
Overweight and obesity are major public health problems associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Motivational interviewing is a patient-centered counseling approach that may improve lifestyle behaviors and weight management.

Participants will be randomly assigned to either a motivational interviewing intervention group or a routine nutrition counseling control group.
