Description

A cross-sectional study on young females undergoing weight loss control was conducted to investigate their dietary and lifestyle characteristics. The subjects were 297 women (20-29 years) who had completed questionnaires on lifestyle during the 1998 Kyoto Citizen's Health and Nutrition Study. The relationships were evaluated by the chisquare test. The fraction of smokers was 32.4% of those on weight loss control, this being significantly higher than of others who had been on weight loss control before, and of those who have never been on weight loss control. The percentage of those having undesirable dietary habits was also significantly higher with those on weight loss control. Another dietary habit was eating certain kinds of food (eggs, fruits, etc.) less frequently than the others. The evaluation also showed that the nonsmokers on weight loss control had a worse dietary balance than the others.
