CGM paired with behavior change technique interventions, physical activity intervention first
CGM paired with behavior change technique interventions, mood intervention first
Participants in this arm will receive a continuous glucose monitor and they will receive two behavior change technique interventions via daily text messages over the course of eight weeks, in a series of four, two-week blocks. In the first two-week block, they will receive the physical activity behavior change technique intervention. In the second and third two-week blocks, they will receive the mood behavior change technique intervention. In the fourth two-week block, they will receive the physical activity behavior change technique intervention.
