Innovations in the Management of Obesity and Inactivity in Pediatric Primary Care

The purpose of this study is to design, pilot, and tweak a series of peer-led group nutrition
sessions for primary care patients aged 6 -12 years who are overweight or obese and who want
to eat healthier and be more active.

In addition to the group nutrition sessions, the investigators will give a Fitbit to each of
a parent and child dyad, which will be used to track and motivate their activity. The
investigators hypothesize an improvement pre-post in children's physical activity levels,
self-efficacy and intentions for physical activity, self-reported consumption of fruits,
vegetables, and child quality of life, and a decrease in consumption of sugar-sweetened
beverages and fast and snack-food, and television (TV)/ videos screen time
