Summary

The overall goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effects of a community-based lifestyle behavior intervention (LSBI) that is designed to improve dietary habits and physical activity (PA), and reduce weight of Latino women who are predominantly Spanish-speaking immigrants. It is hypothesized that middle-aged overweight/obese Latinas participating in a LSBI conducted by lay health advisors will demonstrate improved dietary habits, increased physical activity and a decrease in BMI compared to those in a control condition, Women in the LSBI also are expected to demonstrate improvements in selected physiologic outcomes (waist circumference, blood pressure \[BP\], measures of cholesterol and blood sugar).
