Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Families with at least one overweight child (8-12 years of age, BMI for age between the 84.6th and 95.4th percentile)
Exclusion
- Individuals with physical or medical limitations that prevent them from engaging in physical activity. We will screen potential subjects and exclude subjects with an underlying disease that would inhibit activity using the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q)
- Individuals using medication that influences body weight and appetite such as ADHD medication (e.g. Ritalin) and medication for depression.

- Adults or children who are weight unstable due to weight loss surgery, weight loss medication, or dietary behavior.
- Families who do not have access to the internet at home or are not willing or able to use public access computers e.g., libraries and schools.
