WELL Center Programs for Adults seeking Weight Loss The WELL Center provides specialty programs for adults seeking weight loss through ongoing research studies at no cost to participants. These studies test novel weight loss and weight loss maintenance approaches. In these programs, you would receive 12-52 sessions focused on teaching you skills to help you make sustainable changes to your eating and exercise habits with the goal of achieving at least 10% weight loss and maintaining it long-term. Binge eating is not a focus of this treatment, although many people with binge eating experience reductions or elimination of binge eating.
Some information about our research studies:
All programs provided are free None of our programs prescribe or test medications All programs can be completed entirely from home Individuals who do not meet the eligibility requirements for any ongoing studies have the option of seeking fee-for-service treatment from The WELL Clinic within The WELL Center. The WELL Clinic offers high-quality, evidence-based weight loss treatment on a fee-for-service to adults who reside in Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, and 30 other states included on this list . The WELL Clinic is currently accepting Aetna insurance. Patients who have other insurance will be charged $260 for a one-time 90-minute initial evaluation session and $200 for a weekly 60-minute session and will be provided insurance-ready receipts to file for reimbursement from out-of-network insurance.

WELL Center Programs for Adults seeking Treatments for Disordered Eating The WELL Clinic provides high-quality, evidence-based treatment to adults having disordered eating, such as loss of control over eating/binge eating, purging, or restrictive eating. For some individuals, treatment for disordered eating may produce weight loss as a result of improvements in binge eating. You may also have the opportunity to participate in a clinical trial if you meet the eligibility criteria. The WELL Clinic is currently accepting Aetna insurance. Patients who have other insurance will be charged $260 for a one-time 90-minute initial evaluation session and $200 for a weekly 60-minute session and will be provided insurance-ready receipt to file for reimbursement from out-of-network insurance. The clinic serves adults residing in Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, and 30 other states included on this list .
Some information about two ongoing clinical trials:
Study #1:
As part of the clinical trial, you will receive 16 sessions of one-on-one therapy for disordered eating. The treatment programs focus on helping develop skills and strategies to gain more control over your eating and reduce disordered eating. None of our programs include medications. Many programs can be completed entirely from home via Zoom. Programs do not explicitly focus on weight loss, although many individuals do lose weight as a result of reducing or eliminating binge eating. Study #2:
In this study, you will receive a science-backed treatment program over 12 weeks via a state-of-the-art smartphone application. The treatment program is fully self-guided and is designed to help you become your own expert in overcoming binge eating. Through this program, you will learn why you binge and acquire proven skills to stop binge eating. This study does not include medications. This is a fully remote study and can be completed by anyone living in the U.S. Are you interested in being screened for a clinical trial or receiving fee-for-service treatment from the WELL Clinic?

Next, we will ask you questions to determine which of our studies you are eligible for. Before we can gather this information, you should read and sign an "Informed Consent" document which will explain how we keep your information secure and provide other details about what to expect during the research screening process.

You have two options for the next steps:
Option #1: Electronically sign a screening “consent form,” complete a questionnaire, and schedule a phone screen. The consent form is a long document that explains (1) the purpose of the screening questionnaire, (2) explains steps in enrolling in one of our studies, and (3) that you can choose whether or not we retain your information in order to notify you about future studies you may be eligible for. If you choose option #1, the phone screen will be 15-25 minutes.
Option #2: If you don’t feel comfortable completing the screening consent on your own, you can sign up for a phone call to review it with a member of our team. Following the review, you will answer questions in order to match you with one of our current studies. If you choose option #2, the phone screen will be 30-60 minutes.
Most participants prefer option #1 because the process takes less of their time in total and because if they are not eligible it gives them the information much more quickly.
Which option would you prefer?
* must provide value
Option #1. Complete consent and questionnaire now; short phone screen soon after
Option #2. Schedule a long phone screen
I am not interested in proceeding.

Thank you for your interest in the CGM study. The purpose of this study is to better understand the relationship between blood glucose and eating behaviors. You will be asked to record your meals and mood in real time on your phone through an app for 2 weeks. You will also record your activity and sleep on a smartwatch we will provide you with. Lastly, you will be asked to wear a small wearable glucose sensor that will be inserted to the skin on your abdomen. Participation for this study is fully remote and you will be compensated up to $430.

Thank you for your interest in our research! Due to Covid-19, we are temporarily suspending recruitment for our weight loss studies. We will be reaching out to interested participants to schedule phone screens once we are recruiting again. Please feel free to email weightloss@drexel.edu if you have any questions!
Thank you for completing this questionnaire! The next step is to choose which program you are more interested in.
All programs are based on the gold-standard approach to behavioral weight loss. There are no "placebo" groups in any of these studies. All interventions will be delivered remotely (i.e., from your home), typically with you joining via a video call and receiving additional program information from an app or website.
Project Fitlink:
Group sessions held weekly for the first 3 months Sessions held monthly in months 4-24 (in some months this is a group session, while in others it is a one-on-one call with your coach) The type of support and accountability that participants receive will vary by condition Project ReLearn:
Remote (video) coaching weekly for 1 year Participants are randomly assigned to receive one of two types of coaching Gold standard small-group behavioral weight loss groups; OR A combination of three treatments (group session, video call, coaching message) as determined by an AI optimization algorithm Project THRIVE:
13-week fully remote program Four of the weeks include a one-on-one session with a coach Self-guided skill development in the other weeks (no group meetings) including written materials Good fit for someone who is looking for a shorter and more self-directed program without groups Need to have access to a digital scale Project HealthQuest:
6-month fully remote coach-guided weight loss program Weekly self-paced modules teaching strategies for long-term weight loss Weekly 10-15 minute phone coaching for the first 3 months, then monthly coaching calls for the final 3 months You will have a 50/50 chance of being assigned to one of two diets, which both have strong scientific support: (1) A “flexible” diet that involves meeting a specific calorie target and tracking everything you eat and drink. (2) A “plant-based diet” which involves eating predominantly whole plant foods, like veggies, fruit, whole grains, potatoes, beans, and lentils. This diet does not require calorie tracking because whole plant-based foods are naturally filling and low-calorie. No prior experience with either type of diet is needed. * must provide value
