Physical activity is the cornerstone of good diabetes management, and yet effective physical activity intervention is not available. The investigators developed a lifestyle intervention based on individual's home activity patterns.

In addition to physical activity, the investigators will also assess if the intervention will improve social participation among Veterans.
