The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the differences in weight control behaviors, dietary intake, and physical activity between overweight adolescents who lost weight and overweight adolescents who did not lose weight. This cross-sectional study compared 62 overweight adolescents who lost weight in the past with 68 overweight adolescents who did not lose weight. Youth responded to questions regarding weight control behaviors during the past year, physical activity, sedentary activity, and dietary intake. Results showed that adolescents who lost weight were more likely to report using healthful weight control behaviors such as drinking less soda and increasing their exercise level, self-weighing, consuming diets higher in protein, and spending less time watching television compared to overweight adolescents who did not lose weight. Unhealthful weight control behaviors and specific weight loss plans were not associated with weight loss in these teenagers. Adolescents would benefit from hearing this information to prevent the development of these behaviors. Providers should advise adolescents to engage in healthful weight control behaviors, such as increasing physical activity and decreasing the amount of time spent watching television, to assist with weight management.
这项试点研究的目的是评估体重减轻的超重青少年与未减轻体重的超重青少年在体重控制行为、饮食摄入和身体活动方面的差异。这项横断面研究比较了62名过去体重减轻的超重青少年和68名未减轻体重的超重青少年。青少年回答了有关过去一年中体重控制行为、身体活动、久坐活动和饮食摄入的问题。结果显示,与未减轻体重的超重青少年相比,体重减轻的青少年更有可能报告采取了健康的体重控制行为,如少喝汽水、提高运动水平、自我称重、摄入高蛋白饮食以及减少看电视的时间。不健康的体重控制行为和特定的减肥计划与这些青少年的体重减轻无关。青少年若能了解这些信息,将有助于预防这些行为的形成。医疗服务提供者应建议青少年采取健康的体重控制行为,如增加身体活动和减少看电视的时间,以协助体重管理。
