Rural counties in the U.S. have higher rates of obesity, sedentary lifestyle, and associated chronic diseases than non-rural areas, yet the management of obesity in rural communities has received little attention from researchers. To compare 2 extended-care programs for weight management with an education control group. 234 obese women from rural communities who completed an initial 6-month weight-loss program were randomized to extended-care, delivered via telephone counseling or face-to-face sessions, or to an education control group. Cooperative Extension Service offices in six medically underserved rural counties served as venues for the trial. The study was conducted from June 2003 to May 2007. The extended-care programs entailed problem-solving counseling delivered in 26 biweekly sessions. Control group participants received 26 biweekly newsletters containing weight-control advice. Change in weight from randomization. Mean weight at study entry was 96.4 kg. Mean weight loss during the initial 6-month intervention was 10.0 kg. One year after randomization, participants in the telephone and face-to-face conditions regained less weight (means ± SE = 1.3 ± 0.7 and 1.2 ± 0.6 kg, respectively) than those in the education control group (3.7 ± 0.6 kg; Ps = 0.02 and 0.03). The beneficial effects of extended-care counseling were mediated by greater adherence to behavioral weight-management strategies, and cost analyses indicated that telephone counseling was less expensive than face-to-face intervention. Extended care delivered either by telephone or face-to-face sessions improved the one-year maintenance of lost weight compared to education alone. Telephone counseling constitutes an effective and cost-efficient option for long-term weight management. Delivering lifestyle interventions via the existing infrastructure of the Cooperative Extension Service represents a viable means of research translation into rural communities with limited access to preventive health services.
