Actual (reported)This study is a randomized pilot study to assess the applicability of the Weight Watchers model for lifestyle modification to the primary prevention of type 2 diabetes. The approach developed by Weight Watchers to achieve weight loss is based on similar nutritional principals and techniques used in the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) lifestyle intervention; monitoring food intake, exercising calorie control, setting modest weight loss goals and using physical activity.

The existing Weight Watchers lifestyle modification program including the online support tools.
Brief advice regarding risk factors and strategies to reduce them by lifestyle modification guided by National Diabetes Education Program (NDEP) materials.
The standard Weight Watchers program will serve as the base curriculum. Persons with increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes will be exposed to an initial "orientation session" designed to frame the rationale for participation in the program and to encourage attendance to a core series of sessions. This orientation session will reinforce the pre-diabetes status of participants and present the rationale for lifestyle modification as a means to reduce diabetes risk. In addition, this session will highlight the recommended sessions and topics that are needed to help reduce risk.
