Mindfulness-Based Interventions have been applied in different fields to improve physical and psychological health. However, little is known about its applicability and effectiveness in Spanish adults with overweight and obesity. The aim of the present study protocol is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of an adapted MBI programme to reduce emotional eating in adults with overweight and obesity in primary care (PC) settings.
This study is a multi-centre, two-armed randomized controlled trial (RCT), with pre-treatment, post-treatment and 1-year follow-up measures, and a 1:1 allocation rate between groups. Patients from four mental health units in Zaragoza (Spain) will be randomly assigned to two different parallel conditions, with one psychological intervention group ('ME + TAU') and usual treatment ('TAU alone') managed by their general practitioner (GP), to test the superiority of 'ME + TAU' provision compared with 'TAU alone' provision. For ethical reasons, those patients allocated to 'TAU alone' will be offered the ME programme after finishing the trial at 1-year follow-up.

| Experimental | Experimental | Mindful Eating program is apply face to face 7 sessions of 120 minutes/session. ME is apply in groups of 10-12 people in traditional format. Written material and sound recordings will be offered as support elements. The estimated duration of the face to face program is two months. |
|
| Control | No Intervention | Treatment As Usual (TAU) in Primary Care (PC) is any kind of treatment administered by the GP to the patient with overweight and obesity. According to nutritional status, overweight or obesity, as well as the presence of co-morbidity, different actions can comprise the treatment offered at a PC level. For individuals presenting with overweight (BMI 25-29.9 kg/m2) but with no co-morbidities, PC teams organise care plans to enable them to achieve a normal BMI range (BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2). In case of suicide risk, severe social dysfunction or worsening of symptoms, it is recommended that patients are referred to mental health facilities. |
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mindful Eating | Behavioral | The ME group will be composed by 7 weekly group sessions with a minimum duration of two hours, mixing theoretical contents with practices. Sessions will always be the same day of the week, except for bank holidays or eventualities, and will be conducted by a psychologist specially trained and certified in ME with experience in leading mindfulness groups. Group sizes will range between 10 and 12 participants. At the end of each session, participants will receive theoretical contents and homework activities to be practiced along the week. |

| The Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire | It was designed to measure eating styles that may attenuate or contribute to the development of overweight. It comprises three scales that measure emotional, external and restrained eating. The Spanish version of the DEBQ has 33 items, 13 of them referred to the emotional eating scale (e.g., "Desire to eat when irritated"), and 10 items referring to the external (e.g., "Eating when you feel lonely") and restrictive (e.g., "Difficult to resist delicious food") scales, respectively. The items can be rated on a five-point likert scale with 1 indicating "never" and 5 indicating "very often". | Baseline in experimental and control groups. |

| Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire | The FFMQ-short form is a 24-item questionnaire that measures five aspects of mindfulness and there is a Spanish version based on it with appropriate psychometrics. The five facets the FFMQ measures are: observing (α = 81), describing (α = .87), acting with awareness (5 items, α = .83), non-judging to (5 items, α = .83) and non-reacting of (5 items, α = .75) inner experience. The participants indicate on a 5-point Likert scale the degree in which each item is generally true for them, ranging from 1 ("never or very rarely true") to 5 ("very often or always true"). |

| Self-Compassion Scale | It is the most used self-report instrument to measure self-compassion and it is divided into six subscales: Self-Kindness; Self-Judgment; Common Humanity; Isolation; Mindfulness; and Over-Identification. The items can be rated on a five-point Likert-type scale with 1 indicating "almost never" and 5 indicating "almost always". After reversing the negatively formulated items, a total score can be calculated, which may range from 24 to 120, with higher scores indicating greater self-compassion | Baseline in experimental and control groups |

Normative values for BITE total and sub-scale scores in clinical and non-clinical samples are reported. The scale includes in the Symptoms subscale (30 yes-no items; range =0-30) and Severity subscale (6 dimensional items addressing specific bulimic behaviors; range=0-39).

It is and abbreviated version of the original EAT-40, having an excellent correlation.
