Summary

This study aims to adapt and test a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) treatment that can be administered concurrently with the Veteran's Health Administration (VHA) MOVE! weight management program for Veterans with DSM-5 Binge Eating Disorder (BED) and high weight.

Conditions

  • Binge Eating Disorder

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

MOVE!

Participants randomized to the MOVE!(or TeleMOVE!) arm only. MOVE! is 16 weeks of 60-minute weekly groups that are led by a physical therapist, dietician, and/or clinical health psychologist. Clinicians utilize materials available online and encourage the use, but do not require or provide food diaries. TeleMOVE! is a 90-day program utilizing technology to provide home-based messaging focusing on health education and as needed clinician contact. \*TeleMOVE! was added as an option since many in-person MOVE! programs were on pause due to the pandemic.

BEHAVIORAL

MOVE!+CBT

Participants randomized to the MOVE!+CBT arm will attend the 16 weeks of 60-minute weekly MOVE! or 90-days of the TeleMOVE! Treatment groups, along with up to 10 clinician-led individual sessions over a 3-month period. Participants will also be given a patient treatment manual to read at home, food diaries that will be expected to be completed on a daily basis, and gradually increase daily physical activity.
