Summary ObjectiveTo investigate the association between eating traits (e.g. dietary restraint or opportunistic eating) and weight -both cross-sectionally and longitudinally -and whether physical activity (PA) moderates these associations. 48.90% female) participated in this 12-month observational cohort study. Cognitive Restraint (CR), Disinhibition (DI) and Hunger (HU) were measured using the ThreeFactor Eating Questionnaire at baseline and 12 months. Participants were measured at quarterly intervals for objectively measured PA and anthropometrics. Cross-sectional and longitudinal models determined if eating traits were associated with weight or weight change, and whether these associations were moderated by PA. Methods Two ResultsAt baseline, higher CR (B = 0.429, p < 0.01) and DI (B = 0.942, p < 0.01) were associated with higher weight. The associations of DI (B = À0.008 p = 0.02) and HU (B = À0.006, p = 0.04) with weight were moderated by PA at baseline. The longitudinal model for CR determined PA altered the relationship between change in CR and weight change (B = 0.004, p < 0.01). ConclusionsEating traits and PA are associated with weight and weight change. However, to elucidate how PA and eating traits directly affect weight changes, future weight loss interventions should investigate whether improving eating traits and concomitantly increasing PA amplify weight loss.

“…[26] 5 Associations between overweight and psychosocial factors have been inconsistent, with some studies reporting an inverse relationship between BMI and selfesteem, and others showing no association. [27][28][29][30] Some of the postulated reasons for the divergent findings include methodological differences in measuring selfesteem, differences in samples surveyed (clinical and nonclinical groups), and in sociodemographic profiles. Previous studies have found that taller adults tend to enjoy better mental health than their counterparts of average and below-average stature.…”

3,344 Children aged between 10 to 16 years from grade 4 to 10 were recruited to explore potential explanatory variables of low self-esteem among rural school-aged children in China. The results showed that the RSE scores were slightly higher for girls than for boys and higher academic achievement didn't contribute higher RSE scores in rural China. A lower height Z-scores resulted in a lower self-esteem in girls, and low SE was associated with height Z-score less than -1 versus scores more than -1 (OR=1.69, 95% CI 1.19-2.38, P=0.003). The findings indicated that it was height and BMI rather than weight to girls and weight to boys that were significantly associated with low self-esteem in rural China under the premise of very low rate of obesity.Self-esteem, also called self-worth, is a major predictor of satisfaction with life. A number of studies have investigated the factors that affect self-esteem on children, and current research focus such as the impacts of gender, [1] socio-economic status, [2] academic achievement, [3] age, [4] weight [5,6] and BMI [7] on self-esteem often reached conflicting conclusions in different areas or in different population. A theory of social comparisons explains how individuals evaluate their own opinions and abilities by comparing themselves to others who are similar to the self or who are upward (superior to the self) or downward (inferior to the self) on some attributes or di-

Psychosocial Determinants of Weight Loss Among Young Adults With Overweight and Obesity

Abstract: Among young adults with overweight and obesity who have higher DT, PA appears to be more important to WL than caloric restriction, particularly in males.
