Abstract

Suvremeni pristup u prehrambenim intervencijama kod osoba s povišenom tjelesnom masom i pretilih okrenut je više prema promjeni životnih navika, nego čistoj kalorijskoj restrikciji. Promjene prehrambenih i bihevioralnih obrazaca, uz povećanje tjelesne aktivnosti, daju dugoročnije rezultate prilikom gubitka tjelesne mase. Nedostatak motivacije među glavnim je preprekama u programima za kontrolu tjelesne mase, stoga se naglasak u intervencijama takvoga tipa stavlja na povećanje unutarnje motivacije kroz procese postavljanja ciljeva, planiranja djelovanja te povećanja samokontrole. Cilj ovog šestomjesečnog istraživanja bio je istražiti utjecaj multidisciplinarnog liječenja debljine na čimbenike povezane s etiologijom debljine te dobivene rezultate povezati s razinom motivacije za promjenom prehrambenih navika. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 16 ispitanika, oba spola, prosječne dobi 15,67 ± 1,69 godina te indeksom tjelesne mase >25 kgm-2. Analizom rezultata izlaznih antropometrijskih mjerenja, utvrđeno je smanjenje tjelesne mase u odnosu na početno mjerenje u 64% ispitanika. Unatoč visokoj razini motivacije na početku istraživanja, stopa odustajanja tijekom istraživanja bila je visoka, a prisutnost na psihološkim sastancima kao i grupnim vježbama (treninzima) slaba.

Abstract (english)

The current approach to dietary interventions in overweight and obese individuals is focused on lifestyle changes rather than calorie restriction. Weight loss strategies using dietary modification, physical activity and behavioral interventions may result in weight loss and its maintainancefor longer time. Lack of motivation is one of the main obstacles in weight control programs, so the emphasis is on increasing intrinsic motivation through goal setting processes, action planning and increasing selfcontrol. The objective of this six-month study was to investigate the impact of the multidisciplinary treatment on factors associated with the ethology of obesity as well as to establish the correlation between obtained results and the level of motivation for changeing eating habits.16 subjects, both gender, average age 15,67 ± 1,69, with body mass indeks >25 kgm2 participated in this study. No significant differences were determined between the initial and final anthropometric measurements. A decrease in body weight between measurements was found in 64 % of the subjects. Despite the high level of motivation at the beginning of the study, the dropout rate was high and psychological counselling as well as training attendance was low.
