We are interested in who will participate, how much participants will use the program, how many participants are interested in preventing weight gain or losing weight, and how the program will affect eating, physical activity, and stress. This program is based on previous research on approaches the researchers have studied to help people make small changes to their behavior and is being offered in response to an identified need to offer health promotion resources during the COVID-19 pandemic
