改变你的生活方式：减少你的能量摄入，增加你的能量消耗，这是肥胖专家告诉需要减肥的人的。虽然建议可能是正确的，但似乎很难改变一个人的生活方式。不健康的习惯通常是根深蒂固的，很难改变，特别是对那些有“肥胖认知特征”的人来说。了解维持不健康饮食习惯的认知机制对于制定有效改变行为的干预措施是必要的。本文讨论了一些可能维持不健康饮食习惯并使健康饮食变得困难的认知过程，如食物线索反应性增加，执行技能薄弱和注意力偏差。还努力将这些基本的科学发现转化为新的干预措施，旨在解决破坏性的认知过程。这些干预措施的有效性的初步研究，如果有的话，介绍。
Change your lifestyle: decrease your energy intake and increase your energy expenditure, is what obesity experts tell people who need to lose weight. Though the advice might be correct, it appears to be extremely difficult to change one’s lifestyle. Unhealthy habits usually are ingrained and hard to change, especially for people with an “obese cognitive profile.” Knowledge of the cognitive mechanisms that maintain unhealthy eating habits is necessary for the development of interventions that can change behavior effectively. This paper discusses some cognitive processes that might maintain unhealthy eating habits and make healthier eating difficult, like increased food cue reactivity, weak executive skills and attention bias. An effort is also done to translate these basic scientific findings into new interventions which aim to tackle the sabotaging cognitive processes. Preliminary studies into the effectiveness of these interventions, if available, are presented.
