Summary

The current study was a pilot study examining a novel treatment for weight loss and emotional eating. The intervention is a group-based approach, and it includes a focus on teaching emotion regulation skills from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and traditional behavioral weight loss techniques. The goal of the study was to develop and refine the treatment protocol. Additional goals of the study were to evaluate feasibility and acceptability, to see whether the intervention could be administered and whether participants like the treatment and believe it helps them. Changes in weight and emotional eating from baseline to post-treatment will also be measured.
