Summary

This study tests a video-based healthy lifestyle program for adults aged 50 to 74 who are overweight and have conditions like prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, or high blood pressure. Participants use a tablet, scale, and activity tracker at home, and some get extra support from a coach by video or phone. The goal is to see if coaching helps people lose more weight and keep it off, and to find ways to personalize the program for better results.
