Medicare's search for effective obesity treatments: diets are not the answer. (2007, methodology): “Exercise has also been shown to improve the maintenance of weight loss in two meta-analyses of controlled trials in which participants were randomly assigned to diet and exercise or just to diet (Fogelholm & Kukkonen-Harjula, 2000; Wing, 1999).”
Who succeeds in maintaining weight loss? A conceptual review of factors associated with weight loss maintenance and weight regain (2005, result): “According to one review, the results on physical activity in weight gain are, however, not consistent (32).”
Evidence for prescribing exercise as therapy in chronic disease (2006, background): “Persons who increase their physical activity after a diet are better able to maintain their weight (Owens et al., 1992; Williamson et al., 1993; Taylor et al., 1994; Haapanen et al., 1997; Coakley et al., 1998; Guo et al., 1999; Fogelholm & Kukkonen-Harjula, 2000).”
Exercise as medicine – evidence for prescribing exercise as therapy in 26 different chronic diseases (2015, background): “…in some studies (Owens et al., 1992; Williamson et al., 1993; Taylor et al., 1994; Haapanen et al., 1997; Coakley et al., 1998; Guo et al., 1999; Fogelholm & Kukkonen-Harjula, 2000), while other studies cannot demonstrate an effect from physical activity (Bild et al., 1996; Crawford et al.,…”
Physical activity and obesity in children (2011, result): “This finding contrasts with the inconclusive findings reported in intervention studies.”
How much physical activity is enough to prevent unhealthy weight gain? Outcome of the IASO 1st Stock Conference and consensus statement (2003, background): “Because weight maintenance after weight reduction is more difficult than initial weight loss (33), a systematic review was completed to specifically evaluate the effects of PA on weight loss maintenance (29).”
American College of Sports Medicine Position Stand. Appropriate physical activity intervention strategies for weight loss and prevention of weight regain for adults. (2009, methodology): “A systematic review of PA to prevent weight regain after weight loss was completed by Fogelholm and Kukkonen-Harjula (47).”
