Interventions

  • Group Lifestyle Balance — BEHAVIORAL
    The Group Lifestyle Balance (GLB) program is a self-management intervention that has been shown to result in weight-loss and reduce the risk for Type 2 diabetes through increased physical activity and healthy eating behaviors in the general population. The GLB is a direct adaptation of the Diabetes Prevention Program, both developed at the Diabetes Prevention and Support Center at the University of Pittsburgh. The GLB is designed for delivery in a group-based, community setting,4 and has resulted in weight-loss in a variety of settings, such as community centers, churches, worksites, and healthcare systems.

Arms

  • Experimental: GLB CVA Latino
    The GLB program, adapted for Latino individuals with stroke, will be delivered to participants over a 12-month period, divided into 22 in-person or virtual, group sessions. The goal of the GLB program is to help the participant achieve and maintain a 5-7% weight-loss using a two-pronged approach: 1. Physical activity: This is based upon recommendations by the American Heart Association and the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) to achieve 150 minutes of moderate intensity activity each week. Walking is the primary activity recommended. 2. Healthy eating: Based on United States Department of Agriculture guidelines, the GLB emphasizes healthy eating patterns and tracking dietary intake. Key recommendations include individuals consuming (1) a variety of vegetables, (2) whole fruits, (3) whole grains, (4) fat-free or low-fat dairy, (5) a variety of lean proteins, and (6) oils at every meal
