Weight management interventions have the potential to reduce body mass index and help families adopt healthier behaviors. This study examined feedback from families to identify central aspects of various intervention strategies based on self-determination theory constructs that have the strongest influence on patient success, with the aim of understanding how best to approach weight management in a clinical pediatric setting. Telephone interviews were conducted with 22 individuals (20 parents/guardians and 2 teenagers) who participated in a multidisciplinary weight management program and data was analyzed using inductive and deductive thematic analysis processes. Participants identified motivational interviewing strategies that were most influential to their success. Parents and patient’s identified barriers and facilitators to success included patient readiness to change, personal logistics, family engagement, and establishing long- and short-term goals. Successful pediatric obesity management requires consideration to both the patient and family’s readiness, structured implementation adaptations to address barriers, intentional efforts to move from external reward to internal motivation, and strategies to ensure families develop self-efficacy toward achievable healthy behaviors.
