Description
This pilot trial studies how well a diabetes prevention program with or without hunger training works in helping to lower breast cancer risk in obese participants. A diabetes prevention program involves learning about and receiving materials on different strategies to encourage weight loss, and hunger training involves learning how to recognize hunger. It is not yet known whether adding hunger training to a diabetes prevention program helps participants control their weight that could reduce the risk of some cancers.
