Change in Blood Pressure
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 months
Changes in blood pressure will be measured using a manual sphygmomanometer by a registered nurse.
Change in active lifestyle as assessed by a self-report log
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 months
Change in active lifestyle will be assessed by the number of days per week the participant completed the recommended 30-minutes exercise via a self-report log.

Change in abdominal circumference
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 months
Measured using a measuring tape.
Change in Body Mass Index (BMI)
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 months
