Purpose: To assess the feasibility, preliminary efficacy, and patient perspectives of a 12-week supervised, virtually-delivered exercise and healthy eating program for women living with and beyond ovarian cancer. Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that the program will be feasible and will demonstrate efficacy, and that patient perspectives will be overall positive and in support of the program. Justification: Women living with and beyond ovarian cancer exercise at levels below the general population, and are at an increased risk for falls. Exercise and healthy eating programming is not a part of routine care. This project has the potential to demonstrate a feasible and relatively low-cost option for offering such programming. Objectives: the objectives of this program are: 1) Primary Objective: To measure the feasibility of delivering the BE-BALANCED program from a virtual (i.e. live video) setting. Feasibility will be evaluated per individual item based on a priori targets; 2) Secondary Objective: To evaluate the preliminary efficacy of the BE-BALANCED program; 3) Tertiary Objective: To evaluate patient satisfaction (post-intervention only) Research Design: This study is a prospective single-arm feasibility study. Statistical Analysis: The primary aim is feasibility. This will be evaluated using descriptive statistics, focusing on the program recruitment, attendance, attrition, and fidelity. For secondary and tertiary/exploratory aims, a repeated measures ANOVA will be performed for each measure to evaluate the change in outcomes from baseline and end of intervention (12-weeks) and 3-month follow-up. In addition to the RM-ANOVA, an effect size for each measure will be calculated based on the same time-frame comparisons. SPSS will be used to process data.
