Technology Based Sedentary Reduction Intervention in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The purpose of this study is to develop and test a 12-week sedentary behavior reduction intervention ("Sit Less" program) for patients with type 2 diabetes. The program aims to reduce and break sitting times among this population using an objective activity monitor and mHealth. The investigators will test the program to help diabetes patients break up sitting time, reduce daily sitting time, and move more. The investigators will also study preliminary effects of the SB reduction intervention on light physical activity, cardiometabolic markers and patient-centered outcomes, and whether diabetes patients like the program and can follow it.
