This clinical trial studies how to improve the diet quality and physical activity level of Latino cancer survivors living in rural areas. The recommendation to eat a high-quality diet and engage in moderate-to-vigorous physical exercise may reduce cancer risk, improve cancer survival rate, and reduce associated conditions. However, it is not well understood how best to teach cancer survivors, especially Latino cancer survivors living in rural areas, to achieve and maintain diet and physical activity. Understanding how to build a culturally appropriate education that is effective may improve the diet quality and physical activity level of Latino cancer survivors.

OUTLINE:

Patients attend 6 online nutrition and physical activity (PA) education classes, cooking sessions, and participate in physical activities over 120 minutes each. Patients also receive text messages, electronic newsletters and have access to an interactive nutrition website.

After completion of study, patients are followed up periodically.

Nutrition preferences were measured using 17-questions adapted from a battery developed and validated by the study team. The battery is titled "The Preferences and Self-Efficacy of Diet and Physical Activity Behaviors Questionnaires for Latinas" (preparing manuscript for submission). Participants were asked to rate their like or dislike for 11 specific fruits or vegetables (e.g., green cabbage, kale, turkey or veggie burgers, foods made with oil instead of butter or lard). For each fruit or vegetable listed they were asked to rate on a 5 point likert scale with 1=strongly dislike to 5=strongly like or respond with "never tried it"=0. Scores are averaged across the 17 items. Higher scores are considered a better outcome.

Nutrition Self-efficacy was measured using 11-questions from a battery developed and validated by the study team. The battery is titled "The Preferences and Self-Efficacy of Diet and Physical Activity Behaviors Questionnaires for Latinas" (preparing manuscript for submission). Participants were asked to rate thow confident they are in their ability to engage in healthy dietary behaviors for one month. For each behavior listed they were asked to rate on a 5 point likert scale with 1=not at all confident to 5=extremely confident. Scores are averaged across the 11 items. Higher scores are considered a better outcome.

Nutrition knowledge was a single question. The value reflects a change in the percent of women who correctly answered the targeted number of daily serving intake of fruits and vegetables at baseline compared to 3-month follow-up. The correct answer was 5-9 servings per day.

Physical Activity preferences were measured using 8-questions from a battery developed and validated by the study team. The battery is titled "The Preferences and Self-Efficacy of Diet and Physical Activity Behaviors Questionnaires for Latinas" (preparing manuscript for submission). Participants were asked to rate their like or dislike for 8 specific types of physical activity (e.g., doing housework with vigorous effort, dancing in a group setting, playing with children with vigorous effort). For each activity listed they were asked to rate on a 5 point likert scale with 1=strongly dislike to 5=strongly like or respond with "never tried it"=0. Scores are averaged across the 8 items. Higher scores are considered a better outcome.

Physical Activity Self-Efficacy: Self-efficacy was measured using 5-questions from a battery developed and validated by the study team. The battery is titled "The Preferences and Self-Efficacy of Diet and Physical Activity Behaviors Questionnaires for Latinas" (preparing manuscript for submission). Participants were asked to rate how confident they are in their ability to engage in healthy physical activity behaviors given certain conditions (e.g., when you can't notice any improvements in your fitness, when you have many other demands on your time, when you feel a little stiff or sore) for one month. For each behavior listed they were asked to rate on a 5 point likert scale with 1=not at all confident to 5=extremely confident. Scores are averaged across the 5 items. Higher scores are considered a better outcome.

Self-reported physical activity reflects change in time spent sitting (minutes/day). NOTE: The outcomes are reported as a change score (value at 3 months minus value at baseline)

Self-reported physical activity: walking (MET-minutes/week). NOTE: METs=metabolic equivalent of task. Walking in this case is defined as a light activity equivalent to \< 3 METs. The outcomes are reported as a change score (value at 3 months minus value at baseline).

Self-reported physical activity includes moderate to vigorous physical activity (MET-minutes/week).

NOTE: METs=metabolic equivalent of task. Moderate to Vigorous Physical Activity is considered activities estimated at 3 or more METs. The outcomes are reported as a change score (value at 3 months minus value at baseline)

Because this is a feasibility study, retention was measured. The overall number of baseline participants was 20 and 19 were included in the final analyses. This is due to a loss to follow up of 1 participant and reflects a 95% retention rate.
