Effects of weight cycling on the resting energy expenditure and body composition of obese women.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Int J Eat Disord 1996 Jan;19(1):5-12 Effects of weight cycling on the resting energy expenditure and body composition of obese women. Wadden TA, Foster GD, Stunkard AJ, Conill AM. University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Department of Psychiatry, Philadelphia 19104, USA. OBJECTIVE: Numerous reports have suggested that cycles of weight loss and regain (i.e., weight cycling) are associated with adverse health consequences, a concern that may lead some obese individuals to forgo weight control efforts. The present study examined whether weight cycling was associated with a reduction in resting energy expenditure (REE) and with increases in both total and upper body fat. METHOD: REE, body composition, and body fat distribution were measured before and after weight loss, and following full weight regain, in 12 women who before treatment had a mean (+/- SEM) age of 38.8 +/- 3.4 years and weight of 98.0 +/- 3.2 kg. RESULTS: At the end of treatment, patients lost 18.9 +/- 2.6 kg which was comprised of significant decreases in body fat and fat-free mass of 15.2 +/- 2.2 and 3.7 +/- 0.8 kg, respectively (both ps .001). REE also fell during this time from 1,631 +/- 82 to 1,501 +/- 51 kcal/d (p 03). All of these measures, however, returned to their baseline values when patients regained their lost weight. Body fat distribution was unchanged throughout the study. DISCUSSION: These results do not support claims that weight cycling adversely affects REE, body composition, or body fat distribution.

It is impractical to try and have sex when she's 100lbs overweight and the weight is all fat - but most women ain't that big. - --Steve Chaney Message-ID: You of course do know what a lot of Asian women prefer, right? Besides, after ****ing a cute asian chick, experience tells me it isn't all that except that she looks good on your arm. In bed it ain't much at all. If the lights go out, any guy whose hormones are more fixed on performance than looks, is going to go to sleep right there and then. - --Steve Chaney Message-ID: Clarice and Allisson were well beyond a BMI of 25 in their pictures where they were called cows. - --Steve Chaney Message-ID: If Dutton knocked on Steve's door and Steve shot him in the face, I would really not care. - --Crash Street Kidd about Steve Chaney Message-ID: Stephen A Chaney admits to sodomizing his daughter if he forges me now. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: N/A iQA/AwUBQNDxrTL3IlvsWvnjEQKcUwCdGq9olQHfMOqUwt4KzzgebT U92UkAoOLE XfMTL5VV/vdCVXMCP8DtA2rm =fKba -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |
