      Obesity is a global health problem. New and more efficient interventions are needed to&#xD;
      overcome this disease. This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of&#xD;
      changing eating behavior using cognitive training. These types of interventions have the role&#xD;
      of creating new routines (unconsciously processed), in terms of healthy eating behaviors.&#xD;

    <textblock>
      This is a randomized clinical trial with three groups. Participants will be found through&#xD;
      social media announcements. The active interventions of cognitive training will be delivered&#xD;
      at two groups: one group will receive through hypnosis and the other will receive through&#xD;
      food inhibition training (a GO NO GO task). The control group will receive a simple GO NO GO&#xD;
      task as an active placebo. The trial will be exclusively online and it consists of five&#xD;
      sessions. Participants will complete their tasks on four Zoom sessions. Cognitive, emotional&#xD;
      and behavioral data will be taken at four times: before the intervention starts, in the&#xD;
      middle (after two sessions), at the end and at two follow up moments: one month and six&#xD;
      months after the trial ends.&#xD;
