MOVE! Coach

MOVE! Coach Mobile is a weight loss app for Veterans, service members, their families, and others who want to lose weight. This 16-week program guides users to successful weight loss or weight management through education, and use of tools, in an easy and convenient way. Users can monitor, track, and receive feedback regarding their progress with weight, diet, and exercise goals.

Some Key Features:

•Self-Management Modules – Educate users on a variety of weight-management success strategies using videos, worksheets, games, and other tools. Modules are made available weekly based on your progression through the 16-week program.

•Tracker – Assists users to track weight daily, set weight loss and SMART goals, and see progress reports and summaries

•Tools – Provides users with calculation tools and tools to manage stress

•Support – Helps users identify supports and resources for successful weight loss

This app can be used by itself, but additional benefit may be achieved if used in combination with treatment with your healthcare provider and by tracking health & fitness activity with third-party Google Fit compatible apps. If you’re just starting out, MOVE! Coach can access your existing Google Fit height and weight data, and synchronize your progress recording weight entries with Google Fit.

MOVE! Coach Mobile was created by the National Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention (NCP), under VHA’s Office of Patient Care Services.
