Interventions

  • Mindfulness Orientated Recovery Enhancement — BEHAVIORAL
    The MORE curriculum has been adapted for this intervention to address food intake behaviors and will provide training in mindfulness techniques to increase awareness of, and self-control over, cravings; reappraisal skills to promote emotion regulation and restructure motivations for highly palatable food intake; and savoring pleasant events and emotions to overcome defects in natural reward processing.
  • Control Intervention — BEHAVIORAL
    The curriculum will be based on the Diabetes Prevention Program's Prevent T2 for Life program, which is an evidence-based national healthful lifestyle maintenance intervention. This program includes training in healthful eating, meal planning, and recipe modification; time and stress management; adapting lifestyle habits for continued success during holidays, vacations, and other special situations; and relapse prevention.
