2. Positive Energy Balance :-
Occurs when energy intake is greater than energy expenditure. Body weigh tends to increase during positive energy balance.
3. BMI is body mass index and it's classification :-
- Underweight
BMI of <18.5
- Acceptable
BMI of 18.6 - 24.99
- Overweight
BMI of 25.0 - 29.99
- Obese
BMI of 30+
4. Body mass index is Weight (in kilograms) divided by height (in meters) squared; a value of 25 and above indicates overweight and a value of 30 and above indicates obesity. We calculate it by :
weight in kg / height in meters square
5. Three characteristics important for sustainable weight loss are :-
- A high internal locus of control (that is, they were motivated by internal, not external, factors)
- High self-efficacy (that is, they believed they could do it)
- Better coping strategies for dealing with stress
