About this trial

The purpose of this study is to help make a community led weight loss program known as Take Off Pounds Sensibly (TOPS) more relevant for breast cancer survivors.

This study is made up to two parts. The first part includes using focus groups to review current materials that the investigators plan to use in upcoming TOPS classes and provide feedback. Focus groups will be made up of women who are breast cancer survivors.

The second part includes taking the feedback received from these focus groups and use this feedback to tailor TOPS classes for breast cancer survivors.

This ClinicalTrials.gov record is specific to the second part of the study.
