Summary

The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of mindful eating training on mindful eating behaviors and hedonic hunger levels in adults with obesity.

The primary research questions are as follows:

* Does mindful eating training combined with a weight loss diet improve mindful eating behaviors?
* Does mindful eating training combined with a weight loss diet reduce hedonic hunger levels?
* Does mindful eating training combined with a weight loss diet lead to changes in anthropometric measurements?

Researchers compared participants receiving a weight loss diet alone (control group) with those receiving mindful eating training in addition to a weight loss diet (intervention group) to determine differences in mindful eating behaviors, hedonic hunger scores, and anthropometric measurements.

Participants who are already enrolled in a weight loss diet program was invited to participate in a mindful eating training program.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Mindful eating training

The mindful eating training was delivered once a week for 4 weeks, with each session lasting 50-60 minutes. Weekly homework assignments were given to reinforce the training and increase retention. During the intervention period, the control group continued their weight loss diet program, which had been planned with a dietitian prior to the study. The mindful eating training sessions focused on increasing awareness of hunger and satiety cues, identifying emotional triggers for eating, and promoting mindful food consumption practices.
