Summary:
Obese adults were assigned to 1 of 3 Internet treatment groups: no counseling, computer automated feedback, human email counseling
Human email group got weekly email from a counselor
At 3 months, automated and computer email groups had significantly greater weight loss than controls and at 6 months losses were greater in human email than other groups
Conclusion: Computer-automated feedback was as good as human email at 3 months but research is needed to improve its efficacy for population-based weight loss
