Agenda:

• Weight Management Concerns – Health Risks

• Metabolism – How are your calories used?

• How many calories do you eat?

• Weight Management Theories – Genetics, Lifestyle, Psychosocial Health

• Weight Loss – 1-2 lbs./week (Calorie restriction)

• Weight Gain – Increase consumption of calorie dense foods (i.e. shakes, supplements – Ensure, Boost) Careful with saturated fats

Harris-Benedict Formula

• The Harris-Benedict equation is a calorie formula using height, weight, age and sex to determine basal metabolic rate (BMR). This equation does not take into account your lean body mass which creates some error to this equation. This equation will underestimate calorie needs for extremely muscular people and overestimate calorie needs for extremely overfat people.

• Men: BMR = 66 + (13.7 x wt. in kg) + (5 x ht. in cm) – (6.8 x age in years)

• Women: BMR = 655 + (9.6 x wt. in kg) + (1.8 x ht. in cm) – (4.7 x age in years)

Example using Harris-Benedict Equation to find BMR

• For a woman:

• 5’6’’, 174 lbs., 36 years young

• Convert height to centimeters = 5’6” = 66”x 2.54=167.64cm

• Convert weight to kilograms=174 lbs./2.2=79.1kg

• Women: BMR = 655 + (9.6 x 79.1kg) + (1.8 x 167.64cm) – (4.7 x 36 yrs. young) = 1547 calories

Finding your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)

• Now that you have your BMR, you can calculate your TDEE by multiplying your BMR by your activity multiplier from the chart below:

• Sedentary = BMR x 1.2 (little or no exercise, desk job)

• Lightly active = BMR x 1.375 (light exercise/sports 1-3 days/wk)

• Moderately active = BMR x 1.55 (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/wk)

• Very active = BMR x 1.725 (hard exercise/sports 6-7 days/wk)

• Extremely active = BMR x 1.9 (hard daily exercise/sports & physical job or 2x day training, i.e. marathon, contest, etc.)

Example

• Woman who is moderately active (TDEE) = 1547 x 1.55 = 2398 calories

• If this woman wants to lose weight (1-2 lbs. recommended) she needs to expend or reduce an additional 500-1000 calories/day.

• Determining the Right Weight for You

• Reference Table 10.2 for Healthy Weight Ranges

Assessing Fat Levels

• Body Mass Index

• Index of the relationship between height and weight

• BMI of 19-25 indicates healthy weight

• Does have limitations

• Waist-to-Hip Ratio

• Weight in abdominal region associated with more risk

• Waistline greater than 40 inches men / 35 in women, risky

Assessing Fat Levels

• Measures of Body Fat

• Hydrostatic weighing technique

• Pinch and skinfold measure

• Girth and circumference measure

• Soft-tissue roentgenogram

• Bioelectrical impedance analysis

• Total body electrical conductivity
