Battling Mother Nature




Our bodies fight us to regain the lost weight
  Biological and physiological mechanisms
    defend extra fat and try to return the
           body to the weight it was
Research shows that
people who have lost
 weight are hungrier
 and not just for any
        food
Weight loss signals the brain that you are
    starving and will slow metabolism
Keep in mind that metabolic rate is linked to the
   amount of lean and muscle tissue you have

The only way to counter this is to exercise more
Physical Activity

• Physical activity is any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles that
  results in an expenditure of energy with a range of activities such as:

    – Occupational work
       • Carpentry, construction, waiting tables, farming

    – Household chores
       • Washing floors or windows, gardening or yard work

    – Leisure time activities
       • Walking, skating, biking, swimming, playing Frisbee,
          dancing, softball, tennis, football, aerobics
Increasing Physical Activity

•You can increase your physical activity by taking
small steps to change what you do everyday.
               If you normally…                  Then try this instead!

Weight Loss
The key to any successful weight loss is making
   changes in your eating and physical activity
 habits that you can keep for the rest of your life.

Eating for Weight Loss
Strategy for FOODS in a Weight
          Loss Programme
• It may not be what you are eating, but
  how much that will make a difference.
  Portion size relates to the ‘energy in’
  side of the equation.
• Several supporting studies have shown that eating a
  broth type soup or low fat salad prior to the meal
  reduces calorie intake for the whole meal.
• Along with the water, the fiber in fruits and vegetables
  helps you feel fuller and has been shown to reduce
  calorie intake
Exercise + Dieting
           Calorie Deficit

•   Initially (during the first 6 months) physical activity, in combination
    with dieting, is an important component of weight loss.
•   However, after around 6 months, physical activity will not lead to
    substantially greater weight losses when combined with dieting.
•   The benefit of sustained physical activity thereafter is mainly
    through its role in the prevention of weight gain.
•   In addition, it has a benefit in reducing cardiovascular and
    diabetes risks beyond that produced by weight gain alone.
Goals for Weight Loss
                            And Management

 • The initial goal of weight loss therapy is to reduce body
   weight by approximately 10 percent from baseline.
   Once this goal is achieved, then further weight loss can be
   attempted, if necessary.
 • A reasonable time line for a 10 percent reduction in body
   weight is 6 months.
 • Experience reveals that lost weight is usually regained
   unless a weight maintenance program, consisting of diet
   therapy, physical activity and behavior therapy, is
   continued indefinitely.

•NHLBI
Goals for Weight Loss
                              And Management
•   For overweight individuals with BMIs in the typical range of 27 to 35 kg/m2, a decrease
    of 300 to 500 kcal/day will result in weight losses of about 300-500 gms per week.
•   A 10 percent weight loss could be achieved within 6 months.
•   For more severely obese individuals (BMI > 35), deficits of up to 500 to 1,000 kcal/day
    will lead to weight losses of about 750gms per week.
•   A 10 percent weight loss could be achieved within 6 months.
Without permanent change in food choices or portion
           sizes, the weight is regained

             This is the phenomenon called
                       yo-yo dieting
