The purpose of the study is to examine the changes of sleep during weight loss and weight
loss management. The research staff will also obtain data on sleep disturbances, insomnia
symptoms, risk of sleep apnea, circadian preferences, weight loss self-efficacy, emotional
eating, executive functioning, loneliness and social isolation, and patients' beliefs about
how sleep might impact their weight control or vice versa.

symptoms, risk of sleep apnea, circadian preferences, weight loss self-efficacy, emotional

how sleep might impact their weight control or vice versa.
This study is an observational study using a longitudinal data collection design with
non-invasive measures. Fifty participants who are about to begin the Healthy Lifestyle
Program (HLP) at the Weight and Wellness Clinic (WWC) and another 50 participants who are
about to complete HLP will be recruited to the study. After informed consent is obtained, the
patient will be asked to complete several questionnaires about sleep and wellbeing. Their
height and weight will also be measured by the research staff. The patient will then be given
a wrist-worn accelerometer to wear for 16 weeks to measure their sleep and physical activity.
They will be asked to complete the same set of questions at approximately the 8th and 16th
week at a research visit. Data on existing diagnosis of sleep disorders will be extracted
from the patients' electronic medical records.
