- 소개/요약Context Mindfulness strategies may facilitate healthier eating behavior but have not previously been studied in a United Kingdom-based tier 3 obesity service. Objective To demonstrate the clinical effectiveness of mindfulness as part of newly created group sessions within a tier 3 obesity service. Methods Recruitment of participants (n = 53, including n = 33 completers) from patients attending a tier 3–based obesity service at University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire. Each participant attended four group sessions, at which mindfulness-based eating behavior strategies were taught. Self-reported eating behavior and body weight were assessed at baseline and following completion of attendance at the group sessions. Paired-sample t tests were performed. P < 0.05 was considered significant. Data are reported for the 33 completers. Weight difference was assessed in a retrospective control group of 33 patients who did not attend the group sessions but received the standard multidisciplinary input. Results There were statistically significant improvements (P = 0.009) in self-reported eating behavior [driven by improvements in “fast-foodism” (P = 0.031)] and reduction in body weight [3.06 kg (SD 5.2 kg), P = 0.002] at 6 months following completion of the group sessions. This was statistically more (P = 0.036) than 6-month weight loss in the control group (0.21 kg). Participants reported improved self-esteem and confidence in self-management of body weight. Conclusion Application of mindfulness-based eating behavior strategies, taught at group sessions within a tier 3 obesity service, resulted in significant improvement in eating behavior, and facilitated subsequent weight loss over 6 months. Such a strategy has potential for scalability to the wider obese population.
