P118 - Lifestyle Change Program Referral, Participation, and Weight Loss Among Women Planning a Pregnancy

Reproductive-aged women are a critical group for cardiometabolic health promotion for not only the women but also their potential offspring. This is also a stage in life characterized by competing priorities and a woman's focus on health may not be her priority. This poster describes the results of this work emphasizing gaps in health promotion from providers and differences in weight loss during the Diabetes Prevention Program for women with differing metabolic risk profiles.
