Summary

This study is a 2-arm randomized controlled trial examining the effect of personalized text messages on physical activity and clinical outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The investigators hypothesize that:

i. The use of personalized text messages will promote physical activity in patients with T2DM.

ii. Increased physical activity and behavior change correlate with better clinical outcomes (Change in HbA1c).

iii. The text messaging program will lead to sustained physical activity behavior change in patients with T2DM
