2. Weight Management

3. Bell-ringer
List one piece of information you found interesting while watching the weight of the nation.
What is one thing you can do to help prevent against obesity.

4. Basic Maintenance Check

5. Energy In and Energy Out
There are many contributors to childhood overweight. Many parents may believe that their child is overweight because of their genes or because of their cultural or ethnic background. However you must remind them that the only way that a student becomes overweight is when they are in energy imbalance: when more calories come in than go out, you gain weight.
To shift that balance you can do one of two things, or a combination: eat fewer calories, burn more calories, or do a combination of both. (Show scale and describe activity that could be used with students.)
Today we are going to explore primarily the energy in side of the equation.

6. Energy In

7. Energy Out

8. How Do I Use Energy? 1. Basal Metabolism energy to stay alive
(about 60%)
2. Physical Activity energy needed for muscular work
(about 30-40%)
3. Thermic Effect of Food energy needed for digestion
(about 10%)

9. So what happens when… Energy In  Energy Out

10. Consuming extra calories over time
How Weight Gain Happens
Consuming extra calories over time
weight gain
Talking Points:
Marion Nestle, in her book, Food Politics, noted that between 1970 and the late 1990s the daily food supply in America increased by 500 calories. Although the food supply is an overestimation of what people consume, dietary intake surveys show an average increase of more than 200 calories per day. Such small increases in calories can translate into significant weight gain unless there is a change in physical activity or metabolism.
Possible Activities:
Ask the audience to discuss if they think they are eating 200 more calories a day than they did 15 years ago. If so, what is the source of those calories?

11. Defining a Healthy Weight
Body Mass Index
Guideline using height & weight to figure your risk for weight-related problems
Are you at a healthy weight for how tall you are?
BMI = weight (lbs)
703 X
Height² (in)²

12. Classification of BMI BMI (kg/m2) Obesity Class Underweight < 18.5
Normal
Overweight I II
Morbid Obesity
40.0 +
III

13. Meaning of Measurements
Health Consequences of High BMI
High Blood Pressure
High Cholesterol
Type 2 Diabetes
Heart Disease
Stroke
Osteoarthritis
Cancer
Psychological Disorders
Estimated 300,000 deaths/year
Weight Gain of pounds increases risk diabetes x 2
2 x risk for High Blood Pressure

14. Meaning of Measurements
Weight loss is recommended for people:
Considered Obese (BMI >30) OR
Considered Overweight (BMI of ) and have 2 or more other risk factors:
High Blood Pressure
High LDL Cholesterol
Low HDL Cholesterol
High Triglycerides
High Blood Glucose
Family History of Heart Disease
Physical Inactivity
Tobacco Use

15. Managing Your Weight:
Energy Intake = Energy Expenditure What does that mean?

16. What does that mean?
Maintain Weight Calories in = Calories out Lose Weight Calories in < Calories out Gain Weight Calories in > Calories out

17. Energy Balance & Healthful Nutrition
1 pound of body weight = 3,500 calories
Thus, one must have a 3,500 calorie deficit in their diet in order to lose 1 pound of body weight
Needs to be accomplished through both:
Nutrition and Physical Activity

18. Guidelines for Health Weight Management
Weight loss should not exceed 1-2 pounds per week.
Regular aerobic exercise contributes to weight management.
Choose healthful foods based on the U.S. Dietary Guidelines.
Do some form of aerobic exercise at least three days per week for twenty minutes per session at a low to moderate intensity.
Modify unhealthy eating behaviors.

19. Weight loss…
Balanced Diet - getting the right types and amounts of foods and drinks to maintain and support the body
Fad Diet - a weight loss diet that becomes very popular (often quickly) and then may fall out of favor (sometimes just as quickly)

20. Fad Diets… Advertise quick and rapid weight loss
Do not provide safe methods of losing weight
Loss of muscle and water, rather than fat
Body is not receiving enough energy to function properly

21. Fad diets… Cabbage Soup Diet Lemon Detox Diet Atkins Diet
South Beach Diet
Zone Diet
The Grapefruit Diet
Blood Type Diet
Scarsdale Diet
Hollywood Diet
Acai Berry Diet
