The YMCA Diabetes Prevention Program (YDPP) in Euless, TX, is dedicated to empowering individuals at high risk for type 2 diabetes to embrace healthier lifestyles and significantly reduce their risk. Grounded in the proven strategies of the landmark Diabetes Prevention Program, our initiative focuses on essential components such as nutrition education, physical activity, and weight management, demonstrating that a modest weight loss can lead to a 58 percent decrease in the likelihood of developing type 2 diabetes among those with prediabetes. Our welcoming program provides crucial health education, diabetes management resources, and fitness opportunities to help participants make lasting lifestyle changes. To join, individuals must be 18 years or older, meet certain weight qualifications, and have either a prediabetes diagnosis or a qualifying risk score. Those with confirmed type 1 or type 2 diabetes are not eligible. For registration and eligibility inquiries, please reach out to our Diabetes Prevention Program Coordinator in Euless for more information.
