Intervention: Initial in-person individual diet and exercise counseling (N vs. Y)
Description: Individual counseling utilizing MI has been effective in promoting behavioral change.18 A SANOS interventionist (MRNY promotora) will deliver a 45-60 minute counseling session, utilizing MI techniques, on diet and exercise, and how to stretch one's food dollars (see description of 10 modules described above under COMIDA Pilot). The promotora will evaluate the participant's diet based on the 24-hour dietary recall132 conducted at intake (see below), will compare diet composition to the USDA's MyPlate guidelines, and will then personalize education to address identiﬁed knowledge gaps and unhealthy food choices. Promotoras will focus on goal-setting, problem solving, selfeﬃcacy enhancements, selfmonitoring skills (i.e., participants will be taught how to monitor their diet, weight, and physical activity (PA), with simple pencil-and-paper logs or with 'Self-monitoring tools' if randomized to also receive that component), and modeling of healthy behaviors.

Intervention: Thrice weekly diet and exercise text messages (N vs. Y)
Description: Text message interventions have been demonstrated to be effective in increasing self-eﬃcacy, weight loss, and PA.65-67 Participants will receive thrice weekly healthy eating, PA, and health care access text message tips. Links to additional information and videos will also be sent via text (e.g. local farmers markets, healthy recipes, free exercise classes, workout videos, video demonstrations of how to prepare healthy meals, etc.). Texts were developed and piloted in the COMIDA Pilot, are designed to promote goal-setting, problem-solving, self-monitoring, modeling, and self-eﬃcacy, and will be further reﬁned during the formative research phase (see below). Texts will be sent via Mosio Text Messaging Solutions. Messages will be concise, as longer messages have shown no demonstrable impact. Based on each participant's status at intake, tailored text messages will also encourage regular follow-up with PCPs. Text messages will be interactive.

Intervention: Weekly telephone support (N vs. Y)
Description: Several lifestyle interventions including Hispanics have successfully incorporated telephone support.134-138 Weekly telephone support (or more frequently if requested) will be delivered by the promotoras throughout the 6-month intervention. Frequent and prolonged contact in behavioral interventions is more effective than single sessions; most interventions leading to diet or PA changes persisting for \>12 months have follow-up contact sessions for at least 4 months.18 Greater numbers of follow-up sessions facilitate success of behavior change, and initial behavior change can decrease with decreased contact.18,139 Telephone sessions (10-15 minutes) will use MI principles, will focus on goal-setting, problem solving, reviewing/integrating new diet/PA knowledge/skills (including self-monitoring) into individuals' daily routines, self-eﬃcacy enhancements, encouraging participants to seek opportunities for modeling and encouraging regular follow-up with PCPs.

Intervention: Self-monitoring tools (N vs. Y) (for diet and weight)
Description: Self-monitoring is an important component in achieving behavioral change.18 Participants will be given a SANOS food diary (adapted for and pilot-tested at the VDS in our pilot work) and a digital scale. As part of VDS Mobile usual care, all participants will receive a pedometer to assess exercise behavior (secondary outcome), so additional self-monitoring tools for PA will not be included in this component.
