Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1MET and LIFE
Participants randomized to this group will receive both Metformin and lifestyle intervention.Participants randomized to treatment with MET will start at a dose of 500 mg orally at night and slowly titrated in 2-week intervals to ensure that each patient achieves maximum insulin-sensitizing effects of the drug while minimizing the chance of side effects. Investigators will also recommend that MET be taken with food to minimize side effects. If a participant's BMI percentile \<5% (=underweight) his/her treatment with MET will be discontinued. Although the risk of low vitamin B12 while taking MET is associated with age \> 50 years and having type II diabetes, Investigator will monitor B12 levels and a CBC throughout study participation.~Metformin: Metformin - to achieves maximum insulin-sensitizing effects~healthy lifestyle intervention (LIFE): Healthy Life style intervention
0579EG000
Group 2Healthy Lifestyle Intervention (LIFE)
Participants randomized to this group will receive just lifestyle intervention alone.This healthy lifestyle intervention (LIFE) consists of counseling participants and families regarding a healthy eating plan, physical activity and sedentary activities. Prior to study initiation, clinical site staff will participate in a live (or taped) training session from a dietician to lean to administer LIFE. A trained site staff member (e.g. medical assistant or case manager) will meet with participants and their families for a 15-20 minute session at baseline that will focus on nutritional issues using the Traffic Light Plan (TLP).~healthy lifestyle intervention (LIFE): Healthy Life style intervention
