“… Kristeller and Hallett (1999) were the first to test the feasibility and potential efficacy of a novel BED intervention they coined Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Training (MB-EAT). Since then, various investigations have reported that MB-EAT can improve the regulation of eating-related behaviors ( Kristeller and Wolever, 2011 ; O'Reilly et al, 2014 ; Schnepper et al, 2019 ; Carrière et al, 2022 ) and weight loss effects ( Olson and Emery, 2015 ; Chung et al, 2016 ; Fuentes Artiles et al, 2019 ; Schnepper et al, 2019 ), even if with occasionally mixed results ( Daubenmier et al, 2016 ; Tapper, 2017 ).…”

“…For example, MB-EAT coaches participants to notice and objectively accept the sensory qualities of foods, including their smell, texture, and flavor, as well as the interoceptive signals associated with cravings, hunger, and satiation ( Hendrikse et al, 2015 ; Baer et al, 2019 ). Thus, MB-EAT directly addresses the psychophysiological mechanisms implicated in dysregulated, excessive eating and, consequently, weight gain (e.g., Warren et al, 2017 ; Dutt et al, 2019 ; Czepczor-Bernat et al, 2020 ; Mantzios et al, 2020 ; Carrière et al, 2022 ).…”

IntroductionDysregulated eating (emotional eating, cue-elicited eating, and dietary restraint and restriction) has been linked to being overweight or obese. The present investigation used a random controlled trial (RCT) to test the differential efficacy of remotely delivered Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Training (MB-EAT) and Behavioral Weight Loss (BWL) counseling.MethodsThe sample was recruited through advertisements that offered help to people “with problems controlling their eating” or “interested in improving their relationship with food” (n = 135).ResultsRetention was low in both groups (42%), but not dissimilar to retention rates reported in related clinical trials delivered “in person.” Among the participants who completed treatment, we found no between-group differences in any of the treatment outcomes, but participants in both groups experienced significant increases in eating-related mindfulness [Mindful Eating Questionnaire (MEQ) and awareness [Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA), and significant decreases in unhealthy eating patterns [Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire (DEBQ); Binge Eating Scale (BES), and weight over the course of treatment. Participants in both groups also experienced increases in self-reported depression and anxiety symptoms [Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)], although these increases likely reflected normative changes observed in the population at large during COVID-19.DiscussionOverall, the results suggest that dysregulated eating and weight loss intervention delivered remotely via teleconference can be effective.

Objectives Mindful eating (ME) has been receiving increased attention in the treatment of eating and weight disorders. In this context, the ME approach is assumed to help modify maladaptive eating behaviors. This work investigated the effects of a brief ME intervention that focused on the non-judgmental awareness of different motivations to eat in order to study this mechanism. Method Using a randomized controlled trial design, participants were allocated to an intervention group (IG; n = 87) or waitlist control group (W-CG; n = 137). For a 2-week training phase, participants of the IG were instructed to take a mindful moment to rate their different motivations to eat once per day. Self-report data on emotional eating, external eating, and loss of control eating (primary outcomes) and intuitive eating, ME, mental well-being, and self-compassion (secondary outcomes) were gathered online pre, post, and 3 months after the training. Latent change score (LCS) models were used to estimate shorter and longer term effects of the intervention. Results LCS revealed significant shorter and longer term effects of the training when comparing data of the IG with those of the W-CG regarding all primary (d = 0.38–0.61) and most secondary outcomes (d = 0.29–1.16). Conclusions The positive and sustainable effects of practicing this clearly outlined ME skill over a short period support the idea that ME might be a promising approach to enrich the current treatment of eating and weight disorders and aid in expanding our understanding of the underlying mechanisms on its application in the field. Preregistration This study was preregistered at the German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS00012351).
