Brief Summary
The goals of the study are to:
- 1.Assess effect sizes of our mDPP intervention on weight loss, physical activity, dietary intake, and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels from baseline to 5 months as compared to a control group.
- 2.To explore the association between low heath-literacy levels at baseline and adherence to mobile phone usage.
- 3.To conduct process evaluation to gain insights into patient compliance to the mobile intervention, including usage barriers and acceptability of our mDPP, at 1 and 5 months using a semi-structured interview method.
