SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate for differences in feasibility and acceptability of a group diet education program, based on sociodemographic factors such as education, food insecurity, employment, and race.

II. To explore changes in health-related behaviors pre and post intervention using a validated lifestyle score.

OUTLINE:

Patients attend group diet education sessions over 1.5-2 hours every 2 weeks (weeks 1, 3, and 5).

After completion of study, patients are followed up at 12 weeks.
