Text Messaging Pediatric Obese Patients

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study hopes to investigate the relationship between positive reinforcement for exercise activities in pediatric obese participants and quality of life. The investigators hypothesize that providing positive reinforcement through text messaging to children living with obesity will improve their overall quality of life. The investigators will recruit pediatric obese participants and administer a pre and post survey regarding quality of life. The family will be given recommendations on various ways to increase physical activity weekly. These participants will then receive positive reinforcement for completed exercises through text messages.
