AB  - OBJECTIVE: To develop and test a family-centered behavioral weight loss 
      intervention for African American adults with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: In this 
      randomized trial, dyads consisting of an African American adult with overweight 
      or obesity and type 2 diabetes (index participant) paired with a family partner 
      with overweight or obesity but not diagnosed with diabetes were assigned in a 2:1 
      ratio to a 20-week special intervention (SI) or delayed intervention (DI) control 
      group. The primary outcome was weight loss among index participants at the 
      20-week follow-up. RESULTS: One hundred eight participants (54 dyads-36 (SI) and 
      18 (DI) dyads) were enrolled: 81% females; mean age, 51 years; mean weight,103 
      kg; and mean BMI, 37 kg/m(2) . At post-intervention, 96 participants (89%) 
      returned for follow-up measures. Among index participants, mean difference in 
      weight loss between groups was -5.0 kg, P <0.0001 (-3.6 kg loss among SI; 1.4 kg 
      gain in DI). SI index participants showed significantly greater improvements in 
      hemoglobin A1c, depressive symptoms, family interactions, and dietary, physical 
      activity, and diabetes self-care behaviors. SI family partners also had 
      significant weight loss (-3.9 kg (SI) vs. -1.0 kg (DI), P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: A 
      family-centered, behavioral weight loss intervention led to clinically 
      significant short-term weight loss among family dyads.
