In the United States, recent studies have demonstrated weight gain over Thanksgiving contributing to a significant portion of annual national weight gain. Understanding the social context of how Thanksgiving celebrations were perceived is critical for preventing and reducing excess weight during this time. Energy intake from present-day data was back-calculated from body weight data collected in participants before and after Thanksgiving. Similar…
Body composition indices of a load–capacity model
Objective Fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) are frequently measured to define body composition phenotypes. The load–capacity model integrates the effects of both FM and FFM to improve disease-risk prediction. We aimed to derive age-, gender- and BMI-specific reference curves of load–capacity model indices in an adult population (≥18 years). Design Cross-sectional study. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure FM, FFM, appendicula…
The Effect of Psychiatric Disorders on Weight Loss in Obesity Clinic Patients
Research on psychiatric disorders in obesity has indicated that obese people are not psychiatrically different from nonobese people. Few studies, however, have addressed the potential impact of psychopathology on weight control. In the present study, a consecutive sample of 37 patients presenting to a major metropolitan weight control unit were given structured diagnostic interviews (Structured Clinical Interviews for Diagnosis I and II). These p…
