Effect of Mindful Eating on Weight Management in Breast Cancer Survivors

A Mindful Eating Workshop™ workbook was used for standardization and reproducibility of these sessions. The group sessions were focused on teaching applied strategies to consume food with intention and attention and aimed at improving emotional relationships with food. Intervention sessions were held once a week in the evening for 2 hours per session over 8 weeks. The intervention was delivered in a large conference room on the University of Georgia campus. Participants were required to attend seven out of eight sessions. If participants missed a session, they met with the instructor 30 minutes before the beginning of the following week's session to receive individual instruction on content of the missed session.
