Study Summary
The purpose of this trial is to study the safety and efficacy of a pre-packaged, portion controlled meal plan on weight loss and glycemic control in overweight and obese patients with type 2 diabetes. Aim 1 - Effects on Weight Assess the effects of a pre-packaged, portion controlled meal plan on weight loss in overweight and obese patients with type 2 diabetes. The researchers hypothesize that the pre-packaged, portion controlled diet (PCD) will produce a greater weight loss than a diabetes support and education (DSE) program at 12 weeks. The study will be powered to detect between group differences of 3% of body weight. Secondarily, the researchers will assess whether there are any differences in weight during the secondary phase from weeks 13-24 when both groups will consume a PCD diet. Aim 2 - Effects on Glycemic Control Assess the effects of a pre-packaged, portion controlled meal plan on glycemic control in overweight and obese patients with type 2 diabetes. The researchers hypothesize that the PCD will show greater improvement in HbA1c levels than a DSE group at 12 weeks. The study will be powered to detect between group differences of .5% in HbA1c. Secondarily, improvements and differences in HbA1c from weeks 13-24 when both groups are consuming a PCD will be assessed.
