Practical Awareness-Based Strategies for Eating (PASE): A Pilot and Feasibility Randomized Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Few prior interventions for obesity have focused on reward-related eating. Researchers developed a mobile health mindfulness-based intervention, Eat Right Now (ERN), for improving reward related eating; ERN has not yet been feasibility tested as a weight loss intervention.

Objective

To obtain 6-month pilot and feasibility data in patients using the ERN intervention alone or with asynchronous coaching.

Methods

A 6-month, two-arm pilot and feasibility randomized trial was conducted involving 20 adults with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m² recruited from Kaiser Permanente Washington. Participants were randomized to ERN alone or ERN plus individualized coaching. Weight loss was assessed via a Wi-Fi-enabled digital scale.

Results

Among the 20 randomized partic
