apnea, osteoarthritis, and asthma are strongly and positively associated with BMI
(NHLBI 1998). Other studies have suggested that obesity increases the risk of
cancer morbidity and mortality (Bergstrom et al. 2001, Calle et al. 2003).
Excess weight also is associated with increased all-cause mortality. A study
published by researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that poor diet and physical activity accounted for 365,000 (15.2% of
total) deaths in the United States in 2000 (Mokdad et al. 2005). Although one
recent study found that overweight was not associated with excess deaths (Flegal
et al. 2005), another large investigation concluded that overweight women and
men lived 3.3 and 3.1 fewer years, respectively, than their average-weight counterparts, controlling for the effects of smoking (Peeters et al. 2003). Obesity increased the risk of death and shortened life expectancy (by 5.8 years for women
and 7.1 years for men) in those studies (Flegal et al. 2005, Peeters et al. 2003).
These data run contrary to the position of some who suggest that the obesity
epidemic is a myth fueled by cultural hysteria and moral panic (Campos
2004).

Treatment Options
Broadly, three clinical weight loss options exist for overweight and obese individuals: (a) lifestyle modification (i.e., diet, exercise, and behavior therapy),
(b) pharmacotherapy, and (c) bariatric surgery. Which treatment option is appropriate is a function of the patients weight, health status, previous weight loss
attempts, and preferences. Table 2 summarizes the treatment algorithm published
by NHLBI and the North American Association for the Study of Obesity (NAASO)
in the Practical Guide: Identification, Evaluation, and Treatment of Overweight
and Obesity in Adults (hereafter, Practical Guide; NHLBI & NAASO 2000).
The following sections describe each of these treatments and their associated
outcomes.

LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION
The Practical Guide recommends a program of diet, exercise, and behavior therapy for all persons with a BMI 30 kg/m2 and those with a BMI 25 kg/m2
with medical comorbidities (NHLBI & NAASO 2000). Such programs are usually
offered in academic medical centers and are delivered to groups of 812 persons.
Treatment also may be delivered to individuals, but group-based programs produce slightly larger weight losses, regardless of patients preferences for group or
individual treatment (Renjilian et al. 2001). Sessions are frequently 6090 minutes
in length and are held weekly for approximately six months. The intervention is
typically delivered by professionals with expertise in psychology, nutrition, exercise physiology, or health education, who instruct patients in self-monitoring,
decreasing energy intake, increasing energy expenditure, and overcoming barriers to treatment adherence (DPP Research Group 2002b, Wadden & Butryn
2003).

typically regain about one-third of their lost weight in the following year, and
many patients return to their baseline weights over five years (Wadden & Butryn
2003). A study by Perri and colleagues (1988) revealed that participants who continued to meet with their provider twice a month for a year after completing the
initial 20-week treatment maintained a weight loss of 11.4 kg, compared with 3.6
kg among patients who did not receive continued contact. Thus, most lifestyle
modification programs now include a maintenance phase of treatment, in which
contact continues on a monthly or twice-monthly interval after the initial weightloss phase. Extended contact with a treatment provider likely engenders a feeling
of accountability that motivates long-term adherence for persons who have lost
weight.

Weight Control Registry is a database of such individuals, who have achieved and
maintained a weight loss of at least 13.6 kg (30 lbs) for at least one year. The average
registrant has lost 33 kg and has maintained at least a 13.6 kg reduction for more
than five years (Klem et al. 1997). Participants report that they continue to follow
a low-calorie diet, regularly monitor their body weight, and expend approximately
25003300 calories per week in physical activity (Wing & Phelan 2005). Thus, it
appears that the strategies necessary for weight maintenance are quite similar to
those required for weight loss.

PHARMACOTHERAPY
The Practical Guide indicates that pharmacotherapy may be an appropriate treatment option for persons with a BMI 30 kg/m2 or 27 kg/m2 in the presence
of weight-related comorbidities (NHLBI & NAASO 2000). Seven medications
are currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of
obesity, but only twosibutramine and orlistatare approved for long-term use
(Kaplan 2005, Klein 2004).
Sibutramine is a combined serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor that
appears to help limit food intake by decreasing hunger and increasing satiety
(http://www.rxabbott.com/pdf/meridia.pdf). Orlistat, by contrast, acts within the
digestive tract: It is a lipase inhibitor that effectively blocks the absorption of approximately one-third of the fat consumed in a meal (http://www.rocheusa.com/pro
ducts/xenical/pi.pdf). Because the undigested fat is passed in stools, consuming a
high-fat diet (e.g., >20 g of fat per meal or >70 g per day) can lead to undesirable
gastrointestinal side effects. Thus, patients are negatively reinforced to eat a diet
low in fat.
Both drugs induce greater weight losses than placebo (Arterburn et al. 2004,
Li et al. 2005). For example, sibutramine (15 mg) was associated with a 7.4%
weight loss at six months, versus 1.2% for placebo in one large investigation (Bray
et al. 1999). Similarly, a six-month randomized controlled trial found reductions
of 9.8% and 6.5% for orlistat and placebo, respectively (Van Gaal et al. 1998).

Long-term Pharmacotherapy
Experts currently encourage the long-term use of antiobesity agents in recognition
of the chronic nature of obesity (Klein 2004). Just as antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and lipid-lowering medications are used to maintain normal blood pressure,
glucose, and cholesterol values, respectively, antiobesity agents should not be discontinued after an initial satisfactory weight loss is achieved (Wadden et al. 2002).
This position is supported by two-year trials in which patients lost weight with
pharmacotherapy and were then randomized to continued medication or placebo
for weight maintenance. In the STORM trial (i.e., Sibutramine Trial of Obesity
Reduction and Maintenance), 605 obese participants were treated with 10 mg
of sibutramine daily plus a limited dietary intervention for six months (James
et al. 2000). Those who achieved at least a 5% weight reduction (77% of participants) received either sibutramine or placebo for the next 18 months. Participants
switched from sibutramine to placebo maintained a weight loss of 4.9 kg at 24
months, whereas those who remained on medication maintained a significantly
larger reduction of 8.9 kg. Similar results have been found with orlistat. At least
two studies have found significantly less weight regain among patients treated with
orlistat (120 mg three times a day) for two years than among those who received
orlistat in year one and placebo in year two (Davidson et al. 1999, Sjostrom et al.
1998).
Although it is clearly effective, there are significant barriers to the pharmacologic treatment of obesity. Most insurance plans do not reimburse the cost of these
medications, which frequently exceeds $100 a month (Li et al. 2005). Thus, patients are forced to pay out-of-pocket for weight loss medications, whereas drugs
for hypertension and lipid disordersoften the result of obesityare covered.
Many investigators believe that weight loss medications are stigmatized in the
same manner as obese individuals themselves (Wadden et al. 2002).
BARIATRIC SURGERY
Bariatric surgery is the most intensive treatment option and is reserved for individuals with extreme obesity (i.e., BMI 40 kg/m2 ) or those who have a BMI
35 kg/m2 plus serious weight-related health problems (NHLBI & NAASO 2000).
Extreme obesity has become increasingly common among American adults in recent years. From 1986 to 2000, the prevalence of persons with a BMI 40 kg/m2
quadrupled, and the prevalence of those with a BMI 50 kg/m2 increased fivefold
(Sturm 2003). The number of bariatric surgeries performed in the United States has
increased even more rapidly, from approximately 16,000 in 1992 to about 103,000
in 2003 (Steinbrook 2004).
The most commonly performed procedure in the United States is the Roux-enY gastric bypass (Buchwald & Williams 2004). The creation of a small stomach
pouch (30 mL) dramatically restricts food intake, and the bypassing of up to 60 cm

of small intestine reduces absorption of nutrients and, thus, calories (Maggard et al.
2005, Pories et al. 1995). A meta-analysis found that gastric bypass is associated
with average postoperative weight losses of 43.5 kg at one year and 41.5 kg at
three or more years (Maggard et al. 2005).
Adjustable gastric banding, which is often performed laparoscopically and
known as the lap-band procedure, has been performed routinely in Europe
for at least a decade and is becoming increasingly popular in the United States
(Buchwald & Williams 2004). Unlike the gastric bypass, the lap-band procedure
is purely restrictive in that portion sizes are limited by reducing stomach capacity
with a circumgastric band. This surgery induces mean reductions of 30.2 kg at one
year and 34.8 kg at three or more years (Maggard et al. 2005).
As shown in Table 3, bariatric surgery is associated with significant improvements in obesity-related comorbidities. Surgery, however, is not without risks.
Gastric bypass and adjustable gastric banding are associated with early (i.e.,
<30 days after surgery) mortality rates of 0.3%1.0% and 0%0.4%, respectively
(Maggard et al. 2005). The risk of having surgery, however, may be less than the
risk of foregoing it. Christou and colleagues (2004) examined five-year mortality
data for patients who elected to undergo bariatric surgery and controls (matched
on age, sex, and age of morbid obesity onset) who did not undergo surgery. They
found that <1% of the 1035 surgery patients died during that time, compared with
>6% of the 5746 controls.

Many experts encourage targeting the culturenot the individualfor intervention (Horgen & Brownell 2002, Nestle & Jacobson 2000). They argue that
the obesity epidemic will continue to escalate until public policy forces sweeping
changes in our food and activity environments. Brownell and colleagues use the
term toxic environment to describe a society in which energy-dense food is inexpensive, readily available, highly palatable, and heavily advertised, while physical
activity is implicitly or explicitly discouraged by technological advances and the
design of neighborhoods and work places (Battle & Brownell 1997, Horgen &
Brownell 2002).
The increasing prevalence of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and markers of heart
disease among children (Cook et al. 2003, Kaufman 2002, Ogden et al. 2002)
may provide the impetus for supporting broad policy measures that encourage
healthy eating and physical activity. Regulating the advertising of unhealthy foods
to children may prove an important step in changing the food culture. Children
view an estimated 10,000 food-related commercials per year, most of which advertise calorie-dense foods of limited nutritional value (Brownell & Horgen 2004).
Harrison & Marske (2005) found that convenience foods, fast foods, and sweets
comprised 83% of the 725 foods advertised during 40 hours of the most popular
television programs among children aged 611 years. The authors estimated that a
2000-calorie diet of the advertised foods would provide 20%30% more saturated
fat and sodium, and 64% less fiber, than is recommended. Furthermore, a diet of
foods advertised in commercials specifically intended for children would provide
inadequate levels of fiber, vitamin A, calcium, and iron, but would supply nearly
one cup of sugar each day.
Additional evidence points to an unhealthy eating environment for children.
Austin and colleagues (2005), for instance, plotted the locations of all schools and
fast-food restaurants within the city limits of Chicago. They found that the average
distance between a school and the nearest fast-food restaurant was 600 meters and
that 78% of schools had at least one such restaurant within 800 meters (0.5 miles).
Additionally, there were three to four times as many fast-food restaurants within
1500 meters of a school as would be expected by chance.
Studies such as those cited above suggest that parents, educators, and health
care professionals who attempt to encourage or model healthy eating for children
face substantial environmental barriers. Brownell & Horgen (2004) have proposed
a number of policy measures that may reduce such obstacles to healthier eating and increased physical activity. Although a detailed discussion of potential
changes is beyond the scope of this paper, Table 4 includes some representative
recommendations.
Some may argue that personal responsibility, and not policy change, should be
emphasized in confronting the obesity epidemic. This stance seems to imply that
reaching and maintaining a healthy weight is a simple matter of willpower and that
obese persons lack self-control. Individuals with obesity, in fact, often are viewed
as lazy, unmotivated, and stupid by members of the public as well as by health
care professionals (Teachman & Brownell 2001). Many persons attribute excess

Encourage political leaders to be bold and innovative in addressing the obesity crisis and to
remove political barriers to taking action.
Consider changing the price structure of food, first by lowering the cost of healthy foods and
perhaps by increasing the cost of unhealthy foods.
Create a superfund to promote healthy eating, perhaps from assessments placed on food
advertisements or small taxes on the sale of unhealthy foods.

obesity, however, were more than four times as likely as persons of average weight
to meet criteria for major depression (OR = 4.63, 95% CI: 2.0610.42). Figure 3
depicts the odds of depression across BMI categories, adjusted for age, education,
marital status, and several health-related variables.
The findings cited above are consistent with those of smaller, clinical studies. As
compared with less-obese individuals who sought behavioral and pharmacological
weight loss interventions, extremely obese persons who sought bariatric surgery
were found to have lower self-esteem and higher depression scores (Berkowitz
& Fabricatore 2005). Extremely obese persons also have greater impairments
in health-related quality of life than do their less obese peers (Kolotkin et al.
2002).
Some evidence suggests that the relationship between BMI and depression
may be mediated by impairments in health-related quality of life. Several studies
have found that BMI, impaired quality of life, and symptoms of depression are all
positively associated (Dixon et al. 2003, Doll et al. 2000, Kolotkin et al. 2002).
Fabricatore and colleagues (2005), however, found that BMI was unrelated to
depression after impairments in health-related quality of life were included in
multivariate models. Results from this cross-sectional study await replication in a
longitudinal investigation.

CONCLUSION
Obesitywhich is increasingly prevalent in the United States and throughout the
worldis a serious medical condition that is associated with increased morbidity
(e.g., diabetes, cardiovascular disease, sleep apnea, osteoarthritis) and mortality.
Additionally, some obese persons (i.e., women and those with a BMI 40 kg/m2 )
are at elevated risk of depression.
Many available treatments result in clinically significant weight losses and
improvements in weight-related comorbidities. Facilitating the long-term maintenance of such losses, however, remains a challenge to clinicians and researchers.
Thus, obesity must be considered a refractory condition that requires chronic
care.
Barriers to obesity treatment include lack of or limited third-party payment for
weight loss therapies and an environment that is not conducive to weight control.
As long as societal norms include overconsumption of calorie-dense foods and
the built environment implicitly discourages energy expenditure, even the bestdesigned and most powerful treatments will be insufficient to curb the epidemic
of excess weight. Prevention efforts must be undertaken on a grand scale in order
to reverse the increasing prevalence of obesity and related disorders.
