Summary

This study tested whether adding cognitive remediation therapy and emotional skills training to standard obesity treatment could reduce food cravings and improve weight management. It involved 144 obese adults who reported food cravings. The program included weekly group sessions for 10 weeks. However, the trial was terminated early, so the full results are not available.
