Benefits of regular physical activity in obese persons Regular physical activity is an important component of any weight loss program because it is associated with long-term weight maintenance and has beneficial health effects, such as decreasing coronary heart disease and diabetes, that are independent of weight loss itself. The important physiological and clinical issues regarding the use of physical activity as part of obesity therapy will be reviewed in this section.
Physical activity helps preserve fat-free mass during weight loss Approximately 75% of weight that is lost by dieting is composed of fat and 25% is fat-free mass (FFM) [1]. Adding a physical activity program to dietary therapy can affect the composition of weight loss. Two meta-analyses that pooled data from 46 [1] and 28 [2] published trials found that exercise can attenuate the loss of FFM. In subjects with a mean weight loss of 10 kg, regular exercise decreased the percentage of weight lost as FFM by half, from approximately 28% to 13% in men and from 24% to 11% in women ( P <0.05). However, this large difference in percentage of weight lost as FFM represented only a small (approximately 1 kg) difference in the absolute amount of FFM lost between groups. Moreover, conservation of FFM does not necessarily represent conservation of muscle protein; the greater retention of FFM associated with exercise may be related to increased retention of body water and muscle glycogen. It is not known whether performing resistance exercise while dieting leads to greater conservation of FFM than performing endurance exercise because of limited and conflicting data [3,4]. Ballor DL, Poehlman ET. Exercise-training enhances fat-free mass preservation during diet-induced weight loss: a meta-analytical finding. Int J Obes Relat Metab Disord 1994;18:35-40.

Effects of strength or aerobic training on body composition, resting metabolic rate, and peak oxygen consumption in obese dieting subjects. Am J Clin Nutr 1997;66:557-563.
Energy expenditure of physical activity Physical activity increases metabolic rate. This figure shows the energy expended by selected activities in a 75 kg man. The amount of energy expended depends on the intensity, muscle group involvement, and duration of the activity. The increase in energy consumption associated with an activity occurs primarily during the activity itself. Energy expenditure is also slightly increased after an exercise bout is completed, but the post-exercise increase in metabolic rate is usually short-lived and does not cause an increase in resting energy expenditure the following day.

Relationship between physical activity and maintenance of weight loss Although increasing physical activity may not improve short-term weight loss, physical activity may be very important for long-term weight management. However, most long-term (>10 months) prospective randomized controlled trials have not demonstrated a statistically significant beneficial effect of exercise on body weight, when data were analyzed on an intention-to-treat basis [1,2]. The failure to detect a beneficial effect of exercise on body weight may be related to poor compliance with an exercise program. However, large cross-sectional case studies and retrospective analyses of prospective trials found that successful long-term (>1 y) weight loss was associated with participation in regular exercise [3-6]. This figure shows data from one study that found 90% of formerly obese women who achieved and maintained average weight exercised regularly, compared with 34% of obese women who regained weight after successful weight loss ( P <0.001) [3].

Guidelines for increasing physical activity This table summarizes practical guidelines that can be used to help obese patients increase their regular physical activity. An initial assessment is needed to determine: 1) the patient’s current activity profile, 2) his/her readiness to lose weight, 3) the kinds of activities that are physically possible, and 4) barriers that can prevent a successful increase in activity. From this, clinicians should assist patients in developing a physical activity plan, based on information obtained from the initial assessment. Physical activity should be initiated at a low level and gradually increased to a goal of 200 minutes per week in properly selected patients. Activity compliance can be enhanced by increasing lifestyle activities, developing an appropriate home-based exercise program, and considering short bouts rather than long bouts of activity for patients who “ can’t find the time to exercise.”
Components of behavioral therapy for obesity Behavioral therapy of obesity usually includes the following components: Self-monitoring is the most important component of behavior therapy for obesity and involves keeping daily records of food intake and physical activity, and checking weight regularly. Self-monitoring records can provide information needed to identify links in the behavior chain that can be targeted for intervention. In addition, record keeping enhances compliance with dietary and physical activity interventions. Problem solving is a systematic method of analyzing problems and identifying possible solutions. Contingency management involves developing methods to help recovery from episodes of overeating or weight regain. Stimulus control is the process of avoiding triggers that prompt eating. Stress management is used to decrease the negative impact of stress on positive behavior patterns. Social support from family members and friends is important for modifying lifestyle behaviors. Cognitive restructuring teaches patients to think in a positive manner and to correct thoughts that undermine weight management efforts. Cognitive techniques also help patients accept realistic, but less-than-desired, weight losses. Inappropriate feelings of failure after achieving modest but clinically-important weight loss can lead to relapse and weight regain. Wadden TA, Foster GD. Behavioral treatment of obesity. Med Clin North Am 2000;84:441-461.
Cardinal behaviors of successful long-term weight management Data obtained from the National Weight Control Registry (NWCR) have identified specific behaviors that are associated with successful long-term weight loss [1-3]. Participants enrolled in the registry must have maintained a weight loss of 13.6 kg ( 30 lb) for at least 1 year; on average, subjects have maintained a 32 kg (70 lb) weight loss for 6 years . The major behaviors reported by approximately 3000 NWCR participants were: 1) self-monitoring of food intake and body weight; 2) consuming a low-calorie (1300 – 1400 kcal/d) and low-fat diet (20% – 25% of daily energy intake from fat), 3) eating breakfast every day, and 4) performing regular physical activity that expends 2500 to 3000 kcal per week (eg, walking 4 miles per day).

Five steps to facilitate behavior change Five steps that clinical practitioners can take to facilitate behavior changes in their patients are: 1. Identify the specific behavior change that is desired. 2. Review when, where, and how the new behaviors will be performed. 3. Instruct the patient to keep a record of the behavior change. 4. Review the patient’s progress at each treatment visit. 5. Congratulate the patient on successes that have been achieved, but do not criticize failures. Criticism may cause embarrassment and a loss of self-esteem, which may make it uncomfortable for the patient to continue treatment. Wadden TA, Foster GD. Behavioral treatment of obesity. Med Clin North Am 2000;84:441-461.
Responding to nonadherence Compliance with behavior and lifestyle changes needed to lose weight and maintain weight loss can be extremely difficult because of genetic background; environmental pressures; and ingrained, life-long behaviors. Practitioners should have realistic expectations and be aware of the considerable barriers that prevent successful weight management in modern society. It is important to control frustration and maintain support when a behavior is not implemented or a goal is not achieved. A nonjudgmental, problem-solving approach will preserve the clinician-patient relationship and allow continued opportunities for productive therapy. Providers can help patients identify barriers, explore how these can be removed, and devise new strategies to achieve the same objectives. This encourages patients to approach weight management more as a set of skills to be learned than as an exercise of willpower. Small, achievable goals give patients successful experiences and provide a foundation for additional lifestyle alterations. Successes should receive positive attention and praise, and even if a goal is not met, the patient's efforts should be commended. Wadden TA, Foster GD. Behavioral treatment of obesity. Med Clin North Am 2000;84:441-461.
Recommended nutrient content of a weight-reducing diet Dietary guidelines proposed by the National Institutes of Health [1] recommend a 500 kcal/d deficit for overweight persons (BMI 25.0-29.9 kg/m 2 ) who have obesity-related complications, and for persons with class I obesity (BMI 30-34.9 kg/m 2 ). This energy deficit will result in approximately a 1-lb (0.45 kg) weight loss per week and about a 10% weight reduction at 6 months. A 500-1000 kcal/d deficit is recommended for those with class II (BMI 35.0-39.9 kg/m 2 ) or class III (BMI 40 kg/m 2 ) obesity, which will produce about a 1- to 2-lb weight loss per week and a 10% weight loss at 6 months. The recommended macronutrient composition for a low-calorie weight loss diet is shown in this figure and includes 55% or more of daily calories from carbohydrates, 15% from protein, and 30% or less from fat. In addition, specific recommendations are made regarding the composition of fat ingestion: total energy intake should be comprised of 8%-10% calories from saturated fat, 10% or less calories from polyunsaturated fats, and 15% or less calories from monounsaturated fats. Daily cholesterol intake should not exceed 300 mg/d, and daily fiber intake should be between 20-30 g/d. National Institutes of Health, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute.

Suggested energy intake based on initial body weight In practice it is difficult to determine the amount of calories that should be prescribed to achieve a specific energy deficit, because it is difficult to know a patient’s total energy requirements. This table provides suggestions for dietary energy intake based on initial body weight [1]. The estimated energy deficit increases with increasing body weight. The target energy deficit in very heavy patients is higher than those recommended by the NIH guidelines [2], but may be desirable for many patients in these weight categories. Some patien ts may not fully comply with their prescribed diet or the estimate of desired energy intake may be inaccurate. Therefore, dietary energy content should be regularly adjusted based on a trial-and-error approach, to achieve an appropriate rate of weight loss (approximately 1% weight loss per week). Diets containing < 1000 kcal/day may need daily multivitamin supplements, particularly folic acid for women of child-bearing age. Klein S, Wadden T, Sugerman HJ.

Short-term obesity therapy does not result in long-term weight loss Obesity is a chronic disease that requires long-term therapy for successful long-term weight management. Often, patients who are able to lose weight with obesity therapy regain their lost weight after therapy is discontinued. This figure represents data from 76 obese women (mean body mass index 39.4 kg/m 2 ) who were were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: 4 months of a very-low-calorie diet (VLCD) of 400 – 500 kcal/d, 6 months of behavior therapy and a 1000 –1 200 kcal/d balanced deficit diet, or 6 months of a combination of a VLCD and behavior therapy. Each treatment program was effective in achieving short-term weight loss. However, most subjects regained a considerable amount of weight by 1 year and had returned to their pretreatment weight at 5 years. Wadden TA, Sternberg JA, Letizia KA, et al. Treatment of obesity by very low calorie diet, behavior therapy, and their combination: a five-year perspective. Int J Obes 1989;13 (suppl 2):39-46.
Long-term weight loss is improved with long-term maintenance therapy Maintenance therapy is important for long-term weight management success after initial weight loss is achieved by diet and behavior therapy. In this study, Perri and colleagues [1] randomized obese subjects who lost weight after 5 months of diet and behavior modification therapy to “no maintenance” or a “maintenance program” that involved biweekly contact. At 1 year after initial weight loss was achieved, participants who received maintenance therapy maintained long-term weight loss, whereas those who did not receive maintenance therapy regained half of their lost weight.
