Brief summary
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.

These scales and criteria are commonly used by doctors and trained research staff to assess a person's daily living abilities. These scales and criteria are commonly used by doctors and trained research staff to assess a person's daily living abilities. Scores of 0 and 1 corresponds to being fully active, able to carry on all pre-disease performance without restriction; and restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to carry our work of a light or sedentary nature, respectively * Ability to understand and the willingness to sign an online informed consent document \* Depending on preference, the consent will be provided in English or Spanish
Exclusion criteria
* Participants must not be active smokers within the past 30 days. Active smoking is defined as any smoking, even a puff. Participants who smoke are much less likely to engage in healthy lifestyle behaviors, and it is probably more important for participants to stop smoking than it is to change their dietary patterns. If identified as a smoker, the individual will be referred the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Quit Now phone line which supports smoking cessation, or the National Institutes of Health (NIH) quit support website SmokeFree.gov which are both available in English and Spanish * Women must not be pregnant at time of enrollment

| Nutrition Self-Efficacy | Baseline and 3 months | 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 | Change in correct nutrition knowledge response from baseline to 3 month follow-up | 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 | Baseline and 3 months | 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 | Baseline and 3 months | 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: Time Sitting | Baseline and 3 month follow-up | 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 | Baseline and 3 month-follow-up | 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: Moderate to Vigorous Physical Activity | Baseline and 3-month follow-up | 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) |
| Nutrition Preferences: Fruit and Vegetables | Baseline and 3 months | 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
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.

Physical Activity Preferences
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
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.
Time frame: Baseline and 3 months
