  1. Kelly Harnish, BS, CHES Behavior Change Obesity Interventions

  2. Outline • National obesity statistics • Introduction • Methods • Results • Behavior change obesity intervention in practice: The Weight Loss Convoy • Conclusion and limitations

  3. Background • Obesity is defined as a BMI of ≥30 • United States obesity rate: • 32.2% among adult men • 35.5% among adult women

  4. Obesity Trends* Among U.S. AdultsBRFSS,1990, 1999, 2008 (*BMI 30, or about 30 lbs. overweight for 5’4” person) 1999 1990 2008 No Data <10% 10%–14% 15%–19% 20%–24% 25%–29% ≥30%

  7. Comparison of studies Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes) Maintenance Tailored Therapy (MTT) vs. Standard Behavior Therapy (SBT) KEY: ILI = Intensive Lifestyle Intervention DSE = Diabetes Support and Education MTT = Maintenance-Tailored Therapy SBT = Standard Behavior Therapy

  8. Methods: Look AHEAD

  25. Weight Loss ConvoyA convoy is a group traveling together for mutual protection and support.

  26. How this program started

  27. Workplace Overweight & Obesity Data

  28. Weight Loss Convoy Progress 608 lbs 494 lbs n = 19 adults

  29. Conclusions • Standard behavior change interventions have been consistently shown to result in a 10% decrease in body weight over 1 year. • A reduction of 5% body weight is clinically significant. • Participants’ weight losses are related to adherence to intervention recommendations. • Challenges remain in designing programs which keep patients engaged in weight management beyond 6 months. This can result in high levels of weight regain. • Tailoring interventions to the unique needs of the target populations is a model which warrants further study.

  30. Conclusions • Oldest group in ILI of the Look AHEAD study was the most compliant. • Limitation of MTT vs. SBT study was the population’s demographics—highly educated and mostly white. • Limitation to the MTT protocol: same interventionists for each randomized group—some inadvertent crossover of information between SBT and MTT.
