This condition has three stages. In the first stage, participants were asked to select their most distressing memory related to their appearance (not physical or sexual trauma). They were asked to visualize the selected memory, in detail, as if it were happening to them again. Then, interventionists used a downward arrow technique to identify two-to-three maladaptive core schema. In the second stage, participants were asked to identify a real or imagined trusted adult. Then, they were asked to imagine what their younger self might need to cope with or feel calmer in the situation of their selected memory. In the third stage, the participant was instructed to imagine asking the trusted adult for what they need and to imagine the trusted adult providing their selected interventions and describe how they feel afterwards. These procedures were then repeated with participants' most distressing memory related to eating. This session was remote delivered via Zoom.

The active control condition consisted of a time- and attention-matched general nutrition education session. The curriculum for this intervention included information from the United States Department of Agriculture's Dietary Guidelines (e.g., food labels, describing the benefits of macronutrients). This session was remote delivered using Zoom.

the total number of participants enrolled in the study and a demographic description of these participants, including their sex, gender, race, ethnicity, age and body mass index

the % of intervention curriculum the interventionists cover during their intervention session as rated by research staff using a curriculum checklist

% of missing data collected at all study visits

captured via self-report survey items created by the researchers; participants were asked questions such as the extent to which they liked engaging in the intervention; response options are on a Likert-type scale ranging from strongly agree to strongly disagree; average scores at the item level will be generated by condition

frequency of adverse events

the % of participants retained at each visit relative to baseline (i.e., percentage of total enrolled who attended the intervention visit, the 1-month follow-up visit, and the 3-month follow-up visit)
