Virtual Check-Ins
Virtual check-ins with a WW coach were conducted over Zoom (Zoom Video Communications, Inc) and occurred weekly for 6 months. Participants scheduled their weekly check-ins via Calendly, a web-based appointment scheduling software, after which links to the virtual check-in meetings were emailed to each participant. Check-ins lasted approximately 5 minutes and were conducted one-on-one. During check-ins, coaches queried participants about their progress and setbacks, answered questions, and set goals for the week. Check-ins allowed participants to receive individual support to complement the group support from weekly workshops.
