HabitNu is a year-long lifestyle change program delivered to you digitally over the HabitNu website. Over the course of 1 year, you will complete 26 sessions and exceed above and beyond the goals you have set for yourself. Each week you will be in contact with a lifestyle coach and a group of participants who are working towards the same goals. You will make small and lasting changes in your eating and physical activity to improve your health and prevent type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

HabitNu is a year-long program focused on building long-term healthy habits for lasting results. Participants are expected to attend 16 sessions over the first 4 months (Core Phase), then monthly sessions the remainder of the year (Maintenance Phase). A year might sound like a long commitment, but in just a few weeks, most participants see real, tangible results which reinforces their desire to stay with the program and see how far they can take it! Learning new habits, gaining new skills, and building confidence takes time, but their lifestyle coach and classmates are there to support them every step of the way. A more detailed description of the program structure is provided below.

HabitNu’s system allows for participants to sign up in less than 5 minutes. Each participant will enroll by taking our survey and then be contacted by the HabitNu team to receive further information about the class.

The HabitNu Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) incorporates evidence-based education developed by the CDC to promote healthy eating, increased physical activity, and stress reduction while helping participants learn new skills and habits for lifetime sustainability.

The HabitNu class will be held online through its webinar and conference calling tool located on their website or smart phone app. The participant can use either one to access the class. Each class session will last for 1 hour and will be a time for the coach and participants to discuss the weekly educational videos.
