Summary
This study is testing a culturally modified version of the Group Lifestyle Balance program for Hispanic/Latino people who have had a stroke. The program focuses on healthy eating and physical activity to help participants lose weight and reduce their risk of type 2 diabetes. Researchers will enroll 24 adults who are at least one year past their first stroke and have a BMI of 25 or higher. The goal is to see if this adapted program leads to meaningful weight loss and better health outcomes.
