How your company is watching your waistline. #employers #obesity #jobhunting #healthinsurance #nurseup

How your company is watching your waistline:"Employers tried the carrot, then a small stick. Now they are turning to bigger cudgels.

For years they encouraged workers to improve their health and productivity with free screenings, discounted gym memberships and gift cards to lose weight. More recently, a small number charged smokers slightly higher premiums to get them to quit.

Results for these plans were lackluster, and healthcare costs continued to soar. So companies are taking advantage of new rules under President Barack Obama's healthcare overhaul in 2014 to punish smokers and overweight workers."

Legislating Away Obesity? | Dr. Sharma's Obesity Notes

Today is the beginning of the 2nd National Obesity Summit hosted by the Canadian Obesity Network in partnership with the Canadian Association of Bariatric Physicians and Surgeons and the Coalition Poids here in Montreal.

Over the next five days, almost a 1000 researchers, clinicians, policy makers and other stakeholders from across Canada will be discussing the latest in obesity prevention and management.

Just in time for this meeting, the Canadian Medical Association Journal released an article by Mark Eisenberg and colleagues from Montreal’s McGill University on legislative approaches to tackling the obesity epidemic - a topic that will be broadly discussed and addressed at this Summit.

In their paper, the authors present a comprehensive look at the many legislative instruments that policy makers could potentially use to address the obesity problem at a population and individual level.

The paper looks at a wide range of legislative initiatives including taxation and bans of ‘obesogenic’ foods, changing the built environment to promote active transportation, introducing school and workplace programs, and addressing advertising to children - i.e. is the full complement of topics that are generally looked at in ‘policy’ discussions on this topic.

Why Exercise Won't Make You Thin - TIME

As I write this, tomorrow is Tuesday, which is a cardio day. I'll spend five minutes warming up on the VersaClimber, a towering machine that requires you to move your arms and legs simultaneously. Then I'll do 30 minutes on a stair mill. On Wednesday a personal trainer will work me like a farm animal for an hour, sometimes to the point that I am dizzy — an abuse for which I pay as much as I spend on groceries in a week. Thursday is "body wedge" class, which involves another exercise contraption, this one a large foam wedge from which I will push myself up in various hateful ways for an hour. Friday will bring a 5.5-mile run, the extra half-mile my grueling expiation of any gastronomical indulgences during the week.
I have exercised like this — obsessively, a bit grimly — for years, but recently I began to wonder: Why am I doing this? Except for a two-year period at the end of an unhappy relationship — a period when I self-medicated with lots of Italian desserts — I have never been overweight. One of the most widely accepted, commonly repeated assumptions in our culture is that if you exercise, you will lose weight. But I exercise all the time, and since I ended that relationship and cut most of those desserts, my weight has returned to the same 163 lb. it has been most of my adult life. I still have gut fat that hangs over my belt when I sit. Why isn't all the exercise wiping it out?

Diet Soda Makes You Fat | Foodie Buzz

The Wall Street Journal just reported that Diet Coke beats out Pepsi for consumers in the US—only Coke beats them both in total sales. Consumers reach for a can of that cold, bubbly, sweet beverage to get their jolted caffeine fix and a sugary high, but without the calories of normal soda. Sad thing is, if you’re drinking diet soda, it’s still going to make you fat. Find out why.

Researchers from the University of Texas Health Science Center recently presented strong data proving that diet soda makes us fat. They found that the more diet sodas a person drank, the more weight they gained. It doesn’t get much simpler than that.

But it does get more serious than that. Overall, all soda drinkers (both sugar-sweetened and diet) gained weight compared to a control group that did not drink soda. But those drinking only diet soda gained more weight than those drinking regular soda. Hm. So much, in fact, that researchers concluded there is “a 41% increase in risk of being overweight for every can or bottle of diet soft drink a person consumes each day.”

Why does diet soda make us fat? It’s not unlike low-fat foods, which also make us fat. Here are some popular theories:

How Much Weight Can You Lose By Walking On The Treadmill 45 Minutes A Day? | LIVESTRONG.COM

Exercise is one of the two most commonly used methods for losing weight, with cardiovascular exercise being the most effective form for weight loss. Although such exercises as cycling, running and cross-country skiing are cardiovascular options, walking can be just as valid a choice. It's low-impact, often more enjoyable and accessible without specialized equipment. Walking on a treadmill even eliminates the need to wait for good weather.

Exercise and Weight Loss

If you eat fewer calories than you take in, your body burns fat to access the energy stored in fat cells. Lost fat equals lost weight. Exercise boosts your daily energy needs, meaning you increase the number of calories you burn during the day. You need to do 3,500 calories worth of exercises for each pound you want to lose -- assuming you don't increase how much you eat in response to the extra energy expenditure.

How can I stop being hungry? – The Chart - CNN.com Blogs

Losing weight has always been tough for me. It's even tougher for me now that I'm in my 40s. However, I made a resolution for 2010, and with diet and exercise, I've managed to lose 35 pounds.

I've managed to lose weight through grit and determination. The problem is, I am always hungry and my appetite is ravenous, difficult to satisfy. I want to eat until I'm full EVERY TIME I eat. If it wasn't for force of will, I would continue to eat and pack the pounds back on.

Is there anything I can do to fight the hunger?

Doctors, nurses often contribute to patients' weight problems - FierceHealthcare

Although some doctors and nurses seems to think stigma and shame can help motivate patients to lose weight, the opposite seems to be true, according to a doctor's commentary published today in the Los Angeles Times.

"People who are exposed to stigmatizing situations are more likely to engage in unhealthy eating behaviors and less likely to be physically active," said Rebecca Puhl, director of research at the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale University, who was interviewed for the piece.

Indeed, most women in one study coped with stigma over their weight by eating more food or refusing to diet.

What's more, humiliating interactions may make overweight patients unwilling to seek out medical care, which means their other medical problems likely will go untreated, as well. Puhl says that healthcare providers need to adjust their expectations, pointing out that losing weight isn't just about having patients go on diets. An inability to diet down to a healthy weight isn't due to just lack of motivation, according to Puhl.

She also calls on healthcare providers to recognize that even relatively small changes in weight count as progress toward better health. Most people can't lose more than 10 percent of their body weight and keep the weight off over time, she says.

Dr. Valerie Ulene, the commentary's author and a preventive medicine specialist whose siblings tortured her when she was an overweight child, says that patients who are overweight deserve to be treated compassionately and effectively. "It's not just the right thing to do, it's the best approach for successful treatment," she writes.

Medical News: FDA Panel Says Okay to Lower BMI for Lap-Band - in Primary Care, Obesity from MedPage Today

An FDA advisory committee voted 8 to 2 that Allergan's Lap-Band device is safe enough to use in patients with a BMI as low as 30.

The stomach-shrinking device is currently approved for weight loss in people who are at least 100 pounds overweight or have a body mass index (BMI) of at least 40, or a BMI of at least 35 with other comorbidities such as heart disease.

Allergan is looking for approval to lower those BMI cutoffs to 35 and 30 respectively.

If the FDA follows the advice of its advisory committee the Lap-Band could be an option for another 27 million Americans.

The Lap-Band is an adjustable silicon band that is implanted through tiny incisions around the upper stomach. It works by reducing stomach capacity and thus the amount of food the stomach can hold. Its use involves a less invasive procedure than gastric bypass or stomach stapling, but it is also less effective, FDA reviewers noted in briefing documents released in advance of Friday's meeting.

The FDA's Gastroenterology and Urology Devices Panel spent Friday discussing Allergan's single-arm study of 143 patients with the lower BMI criteria.

All 143 had significant reductions in weight and BMI after one year, with only 37% still meeting the criteria for obesity.

After one year, eight out of 10 Lap-Band recipients lost at least 30% of their excess weight, and 66% lost at least half.
