If you’re diagnosed with prediabetes, it’s time to take action. At Sutter Medical Foundation, we offer diabetes prevention education—for kids, teens and adults—as well as weight management programs. We have several options to help you lose weight, improve your diet and reduce your risk for cardiovascular disease.

Diabetes Prevention Programs

Our diabetes prevention and weight management programs are based on the Group Lifestyle Balance Program®, developed by the University of Pittsburgh in conjunction with the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The program adapts the curriculum used in the National Institutes of Health Diabetes Prevention Program. That national study of people with prediabetes found that those who lost a modest amount of weight through healthy eating and increased physical activity significantly reduced their risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

This program is offered at 8 convenient Sutter Medical Foundation locations near you.

Diabetes Weight Management Programs

Break old patterns and develop new, rewarding habits that lead to a healthy lifestyle and long-term weight loss.
