“…The present study shows that overweight (including obesity) and obesity prevalence of children aged 7·5–10·5 years stabilized in Aquitaine (south-west France) between 2004/2005 and 2008/2009. This stabilization, which was the main objective of both the regional and national programmes for nutrition and health ( 20 , 25 ) , is consistent with recent studies conducted at national level in France among 7–9-year-old children ( 12 ) , in other European countries ( 26 – 29 ) and in the USA, China and Australia ( 29 ) .…”

“…These changes in dietary habits among Aquitaine children are consistent with nationwide nutritional recommendations made by the PNNS and relayed regionally by the programme 'Nutrition, Prevention and Health for children and teenagers in Aquitaine', especially though the dissemination of flyers concerning the importance of taking breakfast and an afternoon meal and cutting out morning snacks (25,32) . Actions undertaken on the basis of the PNNS (33) and the nutrition programme in Aquitaine (25) could be responsible for the stabilization of overweight and the improvement in dietary behaviour among 7·5-10·5-year-old children in Aquitaine.…”

Objective: The objective of the present study was to describe changes in overweight and obesity prevalence and eating habits among 7·5-10·5-year-old children in Aquitaine ( Results:After adjustment of the model for age, residential area and socio-economic status of the area of residence, the prevalence of overweight including obesity (OR = 1·05; 95 % CI 0·89, 1·23, P = 0·56) and of obesity (OR = 0·99; 95 % CI 0·71, 1·39, P = 0·96) was found to have stabilized and eating habits had improved: intake of light afternoon meals had increased (OR = 1·38; 95 % CI 1·13, 1·69, P = 0·002) while snacking in the morning (OR = 0·50; 95 % CI 0·45, 0·57, P < 0·001) and nibbling (OR = 0·81; 95 % CI 0·70, 0·93, P < 0·001) had decreased. Conclusions: These results encourage the promotion and implementation of regional and national interventions among children regarding their eating habits in order to stabilize or decrease the prevalence of overweight.

“…The decrease observed in overweight and the stabilization of obesity among children in Bordeaux city could be partly attributed to actions undertaken on the basis of the French National Nutrition and Health Program and the regional Aquitaine nutrition program . Indeed, since 2004, various actions have been implemented such as early detection of overweight, promotion of healthy dietary habits (getting rid of the systematic mid‐morning snack taken in nursery, primary and high schools) and encouraging a physically active lifestyle .…”

“…In the Aquitaine region (south‐west France), the prevalence of overweight and obesity was lower than the French average in 2004–2005 , but great disparities are observed throughout this territory of 41 310 km² and 3 258 000 inhabitants. In accordance with PNNS objectives and tools, a multidisciplinary public health program was launched in November 2004 to improve diet and physical activity of children and teenagers and to stabilize the prevalence of childhood obesity . Bordeaux city, the capital of the Aquitaine region, has been an active partner of the Aquitaine program since 2004, promoting dietary and physical recommendations among various population groups.…”

This study aimed to identify dietary behaviors that might be considered as associated factors for overweight or obesity among French adolescents. Forty-nine of the 536 middle and high schools in Aquitaine (southwest of France) were invited to take part in the study. For each school, participating adolescents were selected using stratification by grade. A self-report questionnaire, including information about sex, age, dietary behaviors, physical and sedentary activities, and parental socioeconomic status (SES), was filled in by adolescents during class. Overweight and obesity were defined according to the age- and sex-specific body mass index cutoff points of the International Obesity Task Force. Multivariate analysis (logistic regression) was used to identify independent dietary factors associated with overweight including obesity and obesity alone (adjustment on sex, age, parental SES, and weight status and adolescents' sedentary activity). In addition to parental SES and weight status and adolescents' sedentary activity, some dietary behaviors are also independently and significantly associated with a higher prevalence of overweight including obesity: absence (OR 1.43, 0.91-2.23) or rare (OR 1.57, 1.23-2.01) breakfast intake (p < 0.01) and absence (OR 5.03, 3.19-7.92) or rare (OR 1.90, 1.46-2.47) light afternoon meal intake (p < 0.001). All variables were also significantly and independently associated with obesity alone. This study shows that socioeconomic factors and individual behaviors are associated with overweight or obesity. These results confirm the importance to carry out multifaceted educational actions among adolescents, by promoting physical activity and healthy food choices in order to prevent overweight and promote healthy lifestyle behaviors.
