Overweight or Obesity Trends
Children and Adolescents
All age groups have become more overweight
There has been a 4 – fold increase in overweight since the 60’s and 70’s
Age (years)
Estimates 1963-65*1966-70**
Estimates2003-04
6-11 4.2%* 32.6%
12-19 4.6%** 33.6%
Prevalence of overweight or obesity among children and adolescents
Rates have increased 4 fold.
2012 PBRC 16
Why Are We So Unhealthy?
1.) Changes in daily food patterns Less time spent eating with family Higher consumption of soft drinks/sport drinks More fast food/quick service food
2.) Changes in daily physical activity No free time to play No access to safe places Increase in popularity of video games/the net
2012 PBRC 17
What is the Cause?
Many factorsEnergy imbalance Excess calories consumed versus calories used (burned) by the body Large portions sizes
Eating versus moving
2012 PBRC 18
Portion size changes
45 vs 350 Calories
500 vs 850 Calories
500 vs 1025 Calories!
2012 PBRC 19
Energy Balance
Calories usedCalories consumed
When calories consumed are greater than calories used by the body, weight gain is the result.

What Contributes to an Unhealthy Diet?
Foods that are:
High in calories High in total fat & saturated fat High in trans fat High in cholesterol High in sodium (salt) Low in fiber Low in fruits, vegetables, dairy and whole grain
Information on Fast Food
2012 PBRC 22
Fast Food Statistics Fast food restaurants have increased 200% over the past 33 years. 25% of adults and 30% of children eat fast foods on a typical day.
That’s 1 out of every 4 adults and nearly 1 out of every 3 children!
2012 PBRC 23
Fast Foods High in calories High in fat High in sodium Low in vitamins and minerals Low in fruits and vegetable Low in whole grain
2012 PBRC 24

A Closer Look at Serving Size
2012 PBRC 27
Soft DrinksMy soft drink can’t have that many calories, right? ….. Wrong
Large (32 fl oz) 310 kcal Medium (21 fl oz) 210 kcal Small (16 fl oz) 150 kcal Junior/Child (12 fl oz) 110 kcal
A large drink has more than double the calories of a
small drink.
2012 PBRC 28
Soft DrinksA Better Idea Would Be:
To order 1% milk instead of regular sodaGet more nutrients:
• calcium • protein
To order diet soda instead of regular sodaSave calories
2012 PBRC 29
French FriesMy French fries don’t have many calories, right? …. Wrong
Large 570 kcal, 30 g fat, 6 g saturated fat Medium 380 kcal, 20 g fat, 4 g saturated fat Small 250 kcal, 13 g fat, 2.5 g saturated fat
Large fries have more than twice the amount of fat grams and total
calories than the small fries.
2012 PBRC 30
French FriesA Better Idea Would Be:
To order a plain baked potato instead of the French fries. True, it may have more calories than the small order
of fries, but it is a much healthier choice. The plain baked potato has no fat, whereas the small fries had 13 g total fat and 2.5 g saturated fat. It has almost half the daily requirement of vitamin C and 1/5th of potassium.

Making Healthier ChoicesTips for Choosing Wisely
Choose grilled meats over fried when possible. Grilled meats are lower in calories, fat, cholesterol,
and sodium. Overall, they are better for you!
Watch foods like cheese, bacon and sausage. These foods are high in calories, fat, and sodium
(salt). Try to limit these foods!
Be careful with salad dressings! They are well-known sources of hidden fats and
calories. Try to use the lower fat versions!
2012 PBRC 42
Making Healthier ChoicesTips for Choosing Wisely
Watch serving sizes on beverages and snacks. Whereas a 12 oz vanilla shake may only have 420 calories,
a 21 oz shake has 740 calories.
Don’t choose foods based on calories alone. It can be deceiving! The fruit and walnut salad has more calories than the baked apple
pie and the chocolate chip cookies. Also check saturated and trans fat and cholesterol.
