Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Diabetes (Hemoglobin A1C 6.5% or higher in the last year) who are regular patients of E. Blair Warner Clinic. English or Spanish speaking patients will be included who are between 18 and 65 years old with a working phone. Subjects recently started on or taking a short dose of medications that are known to influence insulin resistance (i.e. atypical antipsychotics, steroids, thiazides). Subjects (and their providers) on chronic doses of these medications will be asked to keep the dose the same.

Exclusion

  • Patients whose preferred language is not English or Spanish will be excluded due to lack of health coaches speaking other languages. Approximately 50% of C-peptide is cleared by the kidney and some studies excluded advanced renal failure. For our study subjects with chronic renal failure with a GFR \<45 on most recent blood work will be excluded. Subjects with conditions known to influence insulin resistance (i.e. pregnancy, hemochromatosis, polytransfused individuals) will be excluded. Subjects with syndromic obesity (i.e. hypothalamic obesity, pradi-willi syndrome) or type I diabetes mellitus will be excluded. Subjects with diagnosed diseases that would hinder giving consent or participating in health coaching (i.e. dementia, cognitive impairment) will be excluded. Subjects who have attended an intensive lifestyle change program and/or made an impacting lifestyle change in the last 3 months, such as losing 5% or more of their body weight in the last 3 months will also be excluded.
