| Abstract | This study aimed to investigate the effects of self-regulation programs with a peer support group program through LINE application for weight control of healthcare providers. Self-regulation programs can help to change a person's behavior to their desired one. There are three parts of self-regulation including self-observation, a judgment process, and self-reflection. The participants of this study were the staff of Pakchongnana Hospital, Nakhon Ratchasima Province, with a body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 23 kg/m2. Thirty-two volunteers of the age 21-57 years old were included in the study, whilst 84.4% were female. The mean weight was 80.80 ? 15.04 kg, and the mean BMI was 30.96 ? 4.73 kg/m2. Subsequent to the peer support group program with self-discipline via LINE application with face-to-face and LINE group activities for 12 weeks, the results revealed that the participants' weight, BMI, and waist circumference were significantly reduced after 12 weeks (p < 0.05) compared with their baselines. In conclusion, the self-regulation program with a peer support group through LINE application is useful in controlling weight by exchanging knowledge and experiences along with group support in the LINE group which guided the participants to self-observations, judgments, and self-reactions on eating and exercise behavior leading to behavioral changes resulting in weight loss. |
