Behavioral Approach for Latinas to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes

This study is testing a behavioral program called Regulation of Cues (ROC) to help Latina women with prediabetes (higher-than-normal blood sugar levels that can lead to type 2 diabetes) and obesity (BMI over 30) manage their nutrition, cravings, and eating patterns. The goal is to see if ROC can treat prediabetes, prevent type 2 diabetes, and help with weight loss. You may be able to join if you are a Hispanic/Latina woman between 18 and 55 years old, have a BMI between 30-45 kg/m2, and have a confirmed prediabetes diagnosis (HbA1c level of 5.7-6.4%). The study is looking for 30 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear. Success will be measured by how helpful participants find the treatment and how often they attend the sessions.

What's involved
You would attend 14 treatment sessions over approximately four months.
