Questions/Poll Everywhere
• Should obesity be treated as a chronic disease?
OBESITY: A CHRONIC
RELAPSING CONDITION
Learning Objectives:
Devise collaborative care plans that involve intensive, multicomponent behavioral interventions, including behavioral management activities
Obesity: a Chronic Condition
Obesity is a long‐lasting condition that can be controlled but not cured. It often begins in childhood.
Obesity = chronic disease:
• Duration longer than a year, has exacerbations and remissions
• Associated with functional limitations
• Need for on‐going medical care and patient self‐management
Think: obesity treatment = chronic disease management:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Better control = longer remissions & fewer, less severe exacerbations
Regular monitoring by patient and clinician
Collaborative care plans
Intensive multicomponent behavioral interventions
Action plan for detection/early intervention of exacerbations
Assist and encourage patient self‐management
Overall Obesity Management Goals
Overall GOALS of obesity management:
• Improve patient health
• Improve quality of life
• Improve body weight/composition (reduce fat mass, preserve lean mass
Reframe Success
SCREENING FOR OBESITY
AND OVERWEIGHT
Learning Objective:
Screen patients using BMI to determine whether they are overweight or obese
7
AAFP Recommendations
Calculate BMI
• Screen all adults for obesity using BMI. – Offer or refer patients with BMI > 30 to intensive multicomponent behavioral interventions.
• Screen children > 6 yrs for obesity
– Offer or refer to comprehensive, intensive behavioral interventions if BMI >85th percentile for age.
BMI Calculator
• Kilograms/Meters Formula: weight (kg) / [height (m)]2 = BMI
• Pounds/Inches Formula: weight (lb) / [height (in)]2 x 703 = BMI
BMI < 35: Measure Waist Circumference
• Top of iliac crest
• Indicates abdominal adiposity
• Predicts risk independent of BMI
HIGH RISK Men: > 102 cm (>40 in.)
Women: >88 cm (>35 in.)
>5x RISK of multiple CVD risk factors

Patient‐centered
Principal of Motivational Interviewing
Facilitates patient‐driven behavior change
Facilitates non‐judgmental conversation about weight
“Are you concerned about your weight and its effect on your health and quality of life?”
“Would it be alright if we discussed your weight?”
Vallis, et al. Can Fam Physician 2013 59:27‐31.
51
ASK: Explore Readiness to Change
• Motivational interviewing approach
• Establishes where the patient is with their weight
• Helps physician avoid working harder than the patient on weight
“How ready are you to work on your weight?”
ASSESS: Obesity Severity
BMI Classification of overweight/obesity:
• Overweight = BMI 25 – 29.9
• Class 1 = BMI 30 – 34.9 (obesity)
• Class 2 = BMI 35 – 39.9 (severe obesity)
• Class 3 = BMI > 40 (extreme obesity)
• Super obesity = BMI > 50 Waist Circumference Risk Level:
• HIGH RISK: Men: > 102 cm (>40 in.)
Women: >88 cm (>35 in.)

Weight Gain
Leslie WS, Hankey CR, Lean MEJ. Q J Med 2007; 100:395–404; Malone M. Ann Pharmacother 2005;39:2046‐55.
ASSESS: Physical Activity
• Rapid assessment questionnaire:
– AAFP’s AIM‐HI Fitness Inventory
• Current level/type of leisure physical activity
• Risks to increasing physical activity? • Enjoyable physical activities
– organized or informal?
– alone or with others?
– Inside or outdoors?
• Opportunities and barriers for being more active?
• Goal: increase caloric expenditure
“Dieting” vs. “Healthy Lifestyle”
• Dieting = the smallest number of calories and the greatest amount of exercise that a patient can tolerate.
• Healthy Lifestyle = the smallest number of calories and greatest amount of exercise that a patient can enjoy.
• “Best Weight” = the weight the patient can attain while still enjoying their life.
Freedhoff, Sharma, 2010. Canadian Obesity Network.Toronto, Canada.
11
ADVISE: Diet & Physical Activity
• The “best diet” has fewer calories than current diet, that the patient can enjoy and follow long‐term • To lose weight, MUST change diet
– Quantity and/or quality of calories
• To maintain weight loss – must increase physical activity
– Caloric requirements decrease with weight loss • Diet Types:
– Low fat
– Low carbohydrate
– Very low calorie
Low-Fat Diet
• Fat restricted to 20‐35% of total calories, sometimes less
• Weight loss:
– After 6 months, the same as low‐carbohydrate
• Metabolic Effects:
– May reduce fasting glucose and insulin
– Moderate decreases LDL‐C, HDL‐C
• Risks:
– Hunger control may be more difficult
– Significant increase in carbohydrates without sufficient weight loss could increase glucose, insulin, TGs and reduce HDL‐C
Freedhoff and Sharma, 2010. Canadian Obesity Network. Toronto, Canada.
Low-Carbohydrate Diet
• 50‐ 150 grams of carbohydrate/day (sometimes less)
• Weight loss: – first 6 months, modestly greater weight loss than low‐fat
– After 6 months the same as other calorie restricted diets
• Metabolic effects:
–
–
–
–
Reduced fasting glucose, insulin, TGs
Increased HDL‐C
May increase LDL‐C
May reduce BP
• Risks: carbohydrate cravings
Very Low Calorie Diet
• 400‐ 800 calories/day
– Commonly use commercially prepared formulas
– Need physician supervision
• Weight loss: more rapid that low fat or low carb
• Metabolic effects:
– Reduces fasting glucose, insulin, TGs & BP; may decrease LDL‐C
– May increase HDL‐C
• Risks include: – Fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, hair loss, cold intolerance
– Kidney and gall stones, gout
– Insufficient mineral intake ‐> palpitations, dysrhythmias, muscle cramps
ADVISE: Other Treatment Options
• Lifestyle
– Nutrition
– Exercise
– Behavioral programs
• Lifestyle + Weight loss medications
– Meal replacements + medications
– Very Low Calorie Diets + Supplements + medications
• Weight loss surgery REQUIRES:
– Long‐term lifestyle change for long‐term success
– Life‐long medical follow‐up
