Latest paper to come from the APPETItE project, in which we show that distraction works really well to reduce eating in the absence of hunger. Thanks to all the team for all the work involved, especially @katieedders.bsky.social who led on this one 🤩 kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...
