Abstract Objectives: To investigate the relationship between longitudinal weight-change and objectively-measured physical activity (PA) in a rural African setting in 143 adults (≥30 years), using data from two cross-sectional surveys, separated by approximately ten years. Participants were categorised into three weight-change groups (Weight-loss: ≥25 kg.m-2→<25 kg.m-2; Weight-gain: <25 kg.m-2→≥25 kg.m-2; Weight-stability: remained <25 kg.m-2 or ≥25 kg.m-2). Daily ambulation and activity energy expenditure (AEE), measured in the 2005-7 health survey, was examined across the weight-change groups. Using the daily AEE data, the proportion of those in the weight-change groups, meeting or not meeting two PA guidelines (150- and 420 min.wk-1), was examined. Results: Weight-change was found in 18.2% of the sample. There was no significant overall body mass change (+1.2 kg, p=0.1616). However, there was significant change in body mass in the weight-gain (+15.2 kg) and weight-loss (-10.8 kg) groups (p≤0.0011). Nearly 90% of those who gained weight met the 150 min.wk-1 guideline. A significantly greater proportion of the weight-stable group (<25 kg.m-2) met the 420 min.wk-1 guideline (p<0.05). Ambulatory level was high irrespective of weight group, although the weight-stable group (<25 kg.m-2) approached 15 000 steps.day-1. There was an inconsistent and weak association between PA and weight-change in this group.

Abstract Objectives To investigate the relationship between longitudinal weight-change and objectively-measured physical activity in a rural African setting in 143 adults, using data from two cross-sectional surveys, separated by approximately ten years. Participants who had data for age, sex, body mass and stature measured in two health surveys were categorised into three weight-change groups (Weight-loss: ≥25 kg.m-2→<25 kg.m-2; Weight-gain: <25 kg.m-2→≥25 kg.m-2; Weight-stability: remained <25 kg.m-2 or ≥25 kg.m-2). Daily ambulation and energy expenditure, measured in the 2005-7 health survey, was examined across the weight change groups. Using the daily energy expenditure data, the proportion of those in the weight-change groups, meeting or not meeting two physical activity guidelines (150- and 420 min.wk-1), was examined. Results Weight-change was found in 18.2% of the sample. There was no significant overall body mass change (+1.2 kg, p=0.1616). However, there was significant change in body mass in the weight-gain (+15.2 kg) and weight-loss (-10.8 kg) groups (p≤0.0011). Nearly 90% of those who gained weight met the 150 min.wk-1 guideline.

Weight Monitoring

Aims and MethodTo evaluate a psychosocial intervention for patients treated with antipsychotics with body mass index (BMI) > 25. A total of 44 patients (mean age (s.e.) 37.6 (1.2); 28 female, 16 male) received dietary and exercise advice with motivational interviewing. Weight and BMI were measured at baseline and monthly thereafter. Patients were offered weight monitoring for 1 year.ResultsOverall mean weight loss was 3.1 kg (mean 3.22%). Modal (range) weight change was 74.2 (719.2 kg to +8.7 kg).Clinical ImplicationsOverall weight loss was not significant after 355.7 (32.5) (mean, s.e.) days. Determinants of response remain unclear. Avoiding weight gain in the first instance is critical. Further research will explore determinants of antipsychotic-induced weight gain and prevention strategies.
