The Change Your Lifestyle. Change Your Life. (CYL2) Program in Rome, GA, is a transformative yearlong initiative by the Black Women’s Health Imperative designed to empower individuals to prevent type 2 diabetes and other chronic conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. This evidence-based program equips participants with vital tools and support, offering guidance from personal lifestyle coaches and a nurturing community dedicated to fostering positive behavior changes. Participants learn to develop healthier relationships with food, including smart shopping and cooking, while exploring the factors that influence eating habits and how to substitute negative behaviors with positive ones. In addition, the program emphasizes the importance of self-care and stress management, highlighting the connection between chronic stress and weight gain. While CYL2 is tailored for those with prediabetes or a history of gestational diabetes, it is not suitable for individuals already diagnosed with diabetes.
