N2 - In this pilot project, patient-selected SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-bound) goals were used a to increase self-reported physical activity and decrease hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) in patients with type II diabetes (T2DM). We assessed pre- and postintervention physical activity levels and HbA1C at the follow-up visits spaced 3–4 months apart. In this 23-participant study, patients showed a statistically significant improvement in physical activity when SMART goals were met and a statistically significant decrease in HbA1C with increased physical activity.
