Summary

This study was a pilot 3-month clinical trial that investigated the feasibility, effectiveness, and acceptability of using the Track Health function of the Veterans Health Administration's patient health record for effecting a more positive physical activity (PA) and dietary intake lifestyle in a sample of 38 overweight and obese Veterans with prediabetes. Baseline and three-month post-intervention outcomes were measured in two main domains: objective (e.g., weight) and subjective (e.g., self-efficacy).

  • Body mass index (BMI) of 25-42 kg/m and a sedentary lifestyle (not being physically active three days per week for 20 minutes each time for the previous six months and not performing regular resistance exercise)
  • Able to engage in a regular program of mild-to-moderate intensity physical activity but were not currently following a weight loss diet or participating in an intervention trial
