A total of 189 pregnant Thai women with GDM A1 were
approached and assessed for eligibility. Nine women were excluded
because their blood glucose was higher than 120 mg/dL and they
received insulin therapy for glycemic control (n= 5) or because they
were unable to participate as they lived far away from the setting
(n= 4). The remaining 180 participant were randomly allocated to
the intervention group (n= 90) and the control group (n= 90). All
of the participants in the intervention group participated in two
sessions of practicing mindfulness eating and yoga exercise in class
and completed more than 80% of sessions practiced at home by
themselves. No adverse events occurred during practice. The
recruitment and retention of participants are summarized inFig. 1
