Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a mindfulness-based nutrition group program is feasible and acceptable for adults with obesity who are taking GLP-1 receptor agonist medication and receiving usual medical care, including dietetic counselling. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Can this group program be successfully carried out with adults receiving GLP-1 treatment? Do participants find the program useful, acceptable, and manageable? Are participants willing to attend the sessions, complete the home exercises, and fill in the study questionnaires? Researchers will compare participants who receive the mindfulness-based nutrition group program plus usual care with participants who receive usual care only. Participants in the group program will take part in a 16-week intervention with nine group sessions. They will practice mindful eating, mindfulness exercises, journaling, and peer exchange. All participants will complete questionnaires and body measurements at the start of the study, after 16 weeks, and 12 months after the start of the study. The study does not test a new drug or device. The study team will not make decisions about participants' GLP-1 medication. All medication decisions remain part of usual medical care.
