Background. Body weight dissatisfaction is a hindrance to following a healthy lifestyle and it has been associated with weight concerns. Objectives. The aim of this study was to assess the association between the adherence to the Mediterranean lifestyle (diet and exercise) and the desired body weight loss in an adult Mediterranean population with overweight. Methods. Cross-sectional analysis in 6355 participants (3268 men; 3087 women) with metabolic syndrome and BMI (Body mass index) between 27.0 and 40.0 kg/m2 (55–75 years old) from the PREDIMED-Plus trial. Desired weight loss was the percentage of weight that participants wished to lose. It was categorized into four cut-offs of this percentage (Q1: <10%, n = 1495; Q2: 10–15%, n = 1804; Q3: <15–20%, n = 1470; Q4: ≥20%, n = 1589). Diet was assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire and a 17-item Mediterranean diet questionnaire. Physical activity was assessed by the validated Minnesota-REGICOR and the validated Spanish version of the Nurses' Health Study questionnaire. Results. Participants reporting higher percentages of desired weight loss (Q3 and Q4) were younger, had higher real and perceived BMI and were more likely to have abdominal obesity. Desired weight loss correlated inversely to physical activity (Q1: 2106 MET min/week; Q4: 1585 MET min/week. p < 0.001) and adherence to Mediterranean diet (Q1: 8.7; Q4: 8.3. p < 0.001). Conclusions. In older Mediterranean individuals with weight excess, desired weight loss was inversely associated with Mediterranean lifestyle adherence. Deeply rooted aspects of the MedDiet remained similar across groups. Longitudinal research is advised to be able to establish causality. ; European Research Council (ERC) 340918 ; Recercaixa Grant 2013ACUP00194 ; Junta de Andalucia PI0458/2013 PS0358/2016 PI0137/2018 ; Generalitat Valenciana PROMETEO/2017/017 ; SEMERGEN Grant ; European Union (EU) European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) CA16112 ; Balearic Islands Government 35/2011 ; Balearic Islands Health Research Institute (IDISBA) ; European Union (EU) CIBEROBN CB06/03 CB12/03 PI13/00673 PI13/00492 PI13/00272 PI13/01123 PI13/00462 PI13/00233 PI13/02184 PI13/00728 PI13/01090 PI13/01056 ; European Commission Joint Research Centre EAT2BENICE_H2020_SFS2016 ; "Miguel Servet Type I" program from the ISCIII-Madrid (Spain) CP15/00028 ; ICREA under the ICREA Academia programme ; Fernando Tarongi Bauza PhD Grant ; FPU from the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Univesities FPU 18/01703 ; Spanish government, ISCIII, through the Fondo de Investigacion para la Salud (FIS) ; Especial Action Project entitled: Implementacion y evaluacion de una intervencion intensiva sobre la actividad fisica Cohorte PREDIMED-Plus grant ; PI14/01722 ; PI14/00636 ; PI14/00618 ; PI14/00696 ; PI14/01206 ; PI14/01919 ; PI14/00853 ; PI14/01374 ; PI14/00972 ; PI14/00728 ; PI14/01471 ; PI16/00473 ; PI16/00662 ; PI16/01873 ; PI16/01094 ; PI16/00501 ; PI16/00533 ; PI16/00381 ; PI16/00366 ; PI16/01522 ; PI16/01120 ; PI17/00764 ; PI17/01183 ; PI17/00855 ; PI17/01347 ; PI17/00525 ; PI17/01827 ; PI17/00532 ; PI17/00215 ; PI17/01441 ; PI17/00508 ; PI17/01732 ; PI17/00926 ; PI19/00957 ; PI19/00386 ; PI19/00309 ; PI19/01032 ; PI19/00576 ; PI19/00017 ; PI19/01226 ; PI19/00781 ; PI19/01560 ; PI19/01332

One-year dietary quality change according to the preceding maximum weight in a lifestyle intervention program (PREDIMED-Plus trial, 55–75-year-old overweight or obese adults; n = 5695) was assessed. A validated food frequency questionnaire was used to assess dietary intake. A total of 3 groups were made according to the difference between baseline measured weight and lifetime maximum reported weight: (a) participants entering the study at their maximum weight, (b) moderate weight loss maintainers (WLM), and (c) large WLM. Data were analyzed by General Linear Model. All participants improved average lifestyle. Participants entering the study at their maximum weight were the most susceptible to improve significantly their dietary quality, assessed by adherence to Mediterranean diet, DII and both healthful and unhealthful provegetarian patterns. People at maximum weight are the most benefitted in the short term by a weight management program. Long term weight loss efforts may also reduce the effect of a weight management program. ; European Research Council (ERC) 340918 ; Official funding agency for biomedical research of the Spanish government, ISCIII, through the Fondo de Investigacion para la Salud (FIS) ; Junta de Andalucia PI0458/2013 PS0358/2016 PI0137/2018 ; Especial Action Project entitled: Implementacion y evaluacion de una intervencion intensive sobre la actividad fisica Cohorte PREDIMED-Plus grant ; Recercaixa Grant 2013ACUP00194 ; Generalitat Valenciana PROMETEO/2017/017 ; SEMERGEN Grant ; European Union (EU) European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) CA16112 ; Balearic Islands Government 35/2011 ; Balearic Islands Health Research Institute (IDISBA) ; European Union (EU) CIBEROBN CB06/03 CB12/03 PI13/00673 PI13/00492 PI13/00272 PI13/01123 PI13/00462 PI13/00233 PI13/02184 PI13/00728 PI13/01090 PI13/01056 PI14/01722 PI14/00636 PI14/00618 PI14/00696 PI14/01206 PI14/01919 PI14/00853 PI14/01374 PI14/00972 PI14/00728 ; European Commission European Commission Joint Research Centre EAT2BENICE_H2020_SFS2016 ; Fernando Tarongi Bauza Grant ; PI16/00473 ; PI16/00662 ; PI16/01873 ; PI16/01094 ; PI16/00501 ; PI16/00533 ; PI16/00381 ; PI16/00366 ; PI16/01522 ; PI16/01120 ; PI17/00764 ; PI17/01183 ; PI17/00855 ; PI17/01347 ; PI17/00525 ; PI17/01827 ; PI17/00532 ; PI17/00215 ; PI17/01441 ; PI17/00508 ; PI14/01471 ; PI17/01732 ; PI17/00926 ; PI19/00957 ; PI19/00386 ; PI19/00309 ; PI19/01032 ; PI19/00576 ; PI19/00017 ; PI19/01226 ; PI19/00781 ; PI19/01560 ; PI19/01332

BackgroundChildhood overweight and obesity is a serious public health issue with an increase being observed in preschool-aged children. Treating childhood obesity is difficult and few countries use standardized treatments. Therefore, there is a need to find effective approaches that are feasible for both health care providers and families. Thus, the overall aim of this study is to assess the acceptance and effectiveness of a parent support program (the More and Less, ML) for the management of overweight and obesity followed by a mobile health (mHealth) program (the MINISTOP application) in a socially diverse population of families.Methods/designA two-arm, parallel design randomized controlled trial in 300 2-to 6-year-old children with overweight and obesity from Romania, Spain and Sweden (n=100 from each). Following baseline assessments children are randomized into the intervention or control group in a 1:1 ratio. The intervention, the ML program, consists of 10-weekly group sessions which focus on evidence-based parenting practices, followed by the previously validated MINISTOP application for 6-months to support healthy eating and physical activity behaviors. The primary outcome is change in body mass index (BMI) z-score after 9-months and secondary outcomes include: waist circumference, eating behavior (Child Eating Behavior Questionnaire), parenting behavior (Comprehensive Feeding Practices Questionnaire), physical activity (ActiGraph wGT3x-BT), dietary patterns (based onmetabolic markers from urine and 24h dietary recalls), epigenetic and gut hormones (fasting blood samples), and the overall acceptance of the overweight and obesity management in young children (semi-structured interviews). Outcomes are measured at baseline and after: 10-weeks (only BMI z-score, waist circumference), 9-months (all outcomes), 15- and 21-months (all outcomes except physical activity, dietary patterns, epigenetics and gut hormones) post-baseline.DiscussionThis study will evaluate a parent support program for weight management in young children in three European countries. To boost the effect of the ML program the families will be supported by an app for 6-months. If the program is found to be effective, it has the potential to be implemented into routine care to reduce overweight and obesity in young children and the app could prove to be a viable option for sustained effects of the care provided.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT03800823; 11 Jan 2019. ; Funding Agencies|STOP project; European Union [774548]; CIBEROBN [CB12/03/30038]; Instituto de Salud Carlos III; European Regional Development Fund; Fernando Tarongi Bauza Grant; CIBERESP, Instituto de Salud Carlos III
