BEHAVIORAL

self-regulation theory-based mHealth behavior intervention

Participants will receive a self-regulation theory-based mHealth behavior intervention (5 biweekly group sessions, 60 minutes /session). An experienced Certified Diabetes Educator from the Joslin Diabetes Center and PI (Dr. Zheng) who has been trained using self-regulation for weight loss will co-facilitate group sessions. The intervention combines diet modification and increased physical activity with a weekly weight loss goal as well as focuses on improving participants' three typical self-regulation strategies - self-monitoring, self-evaluation and self-reinforcement. Intervention duration will last 2 months with subsequent 1-month follow.
