Participant Flow

Employees from a Midwestern university with overweight or obesity and prediabetes were recruited from 2018-2021.

Participants completed 4 weeks of the standard Group Lifestyle Balance (GLB) intervention. Those who achieved \>2.5% weight loss at week 5 remained in GLB at week 5. Those who achieved \<2.5% weight loss at week 5 were stratified to the GLB Plus (GLB+) intervention at week 5. Participants were paired based on percent weight change at month 5. Each member in the pair was randomized to group at month 5 for the study duration. Thus, group sample sizes are different at month 5 compared to month 4.
