Building a balanced plate is essential; half should be non-starchy vegetables. Focus on nutrient-dense foods that are low in calories and high in fiber. Aim for a calorie deficit to manage prediabetes effectively and promote weight loss. Whole grains provide steady energy and essential nutrients; choose them over processed options.

   1: Introduction to the Prevent T2 Program

   Prevent T2: Your Path to Reducing Diabetes Risk This episode introduces the Prevent T2 program developed by the CDC, guided by Megan McCrory. Designed for individuals at risk of type two diabetes, the year-long program focuses on achieving sustainable health improvements through lifestyle changes, including moderate weight loss and physical activity.

Here’s the CDC-recommended schedule: Modules 1 through 16: Listen to one module per week over the first 4 months, starting with Module 1 in week one, Module 2 in week two, and so on. Modules 17 through 20: After that, listen to these modules every other week. Modules 21 through 26: Finally, listen to the remaining modules once a month. 04:51 Program Overview 06:12 Prevent T2 Goals This is a yearlong program, but we’ll break it up into two parts. In the first six months, the goal is to lose 5 to 7 percent of your starting weight and get at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity each week. In the second six months, we focus on keeping that weight off, and if you haven’t reached your goal weight yet, we’ll continue to work on that. 07:15 Basics of Type 2 Diabetes 08:25 Your Six-Month Goals 09:20 Making Your Action Plan As you make your action plan, keep these six tips in mind: Be realistic. Plan actions that are achievable for you. Make it doable. Small changes add up over time. Be specific. Decide exactly what you’ll do, when, and where. Stay flexible. Life happens—adjust your plan if you need to. Focus on behaviors. The actions you take will lead to results. And finally, have fun! Find activities you enjoy. 13:56 Wrapping Up The CDC Diabetes Prevention Program Curriculum (CDC DPP Curriculum) is based on the curriculum from the Diabetes Prevention Program (https://www.cdc.gov/diabetes-prevention/index.html) (DPP) research study supported by the National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disease. © 2012, University of Pittsburgh, based on the DPP research trial supported by cooperative agreement number U01-DK48489 from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which has certain rights in the material.
