Pediatricians: Rapid weight change may harm young athletes – Gephardt Daily
SUNDAY, Sept. 3, 2017 (HealthDay News) Young gymnasts, figure skaters and wrestlers who try to quickly shed pounds by fasting or restricting fluids may be endangering their health, pediatricians warn.
Similarly, youngfootballplayers or power-lifters who try to rapidly pack on muscle may also be undermining their health, a new report from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) said.
Sometimes, children and teens in certain sports believe they need to achieve a particular body type to be successful, report author Dr. Rebecca Carl said in an AAP news release.
Unless they have a healthy strategy to work toward their goals, however, they can end up defeating themselves and causing health problems, Carl added.
AAP experts point out that rapid weight loss by means of fasting or avoidance of fluids can actually lead to a loss of muscle strength, speed and stamina. Quick weight loss can also impair thinking, reaction time, alertness and the ability to problem-solve.
Young divers, runners, boxers and rowers are other athletes who may attempt to lose weight quickly.
The rapid loss of pounds may also lead to depression, mood swings, and even long-term eating disorders, the AAP team cautioned.
And health issues related to dehydration may not be quickly reversed, the experts warned. Rehydration typically requires up to 48 hours of regular fluid intake.
By the same token, fast weight gain increases the risk for obesity-related health problems, the doctors added, while also undermining overall stamina and athletic performance.
The upshot: weight gain and weight loss should be achieved gradually and over the long term by focusing on a carefully balanced diet paired with consistent exercise, the AAP team advised.
The report appears in the September issue of the journal Pediatrics.

Obese woman loses 10st in 18 months you won’t believe what she looks like now – Daily Star
JAM PRESS
When Amanda Roberts stepped on the scale in 2014 and saw 23st staring back at her, she knew she needed to make a change.
The mother of one then turned to gastric bypass surgery which helped her lose an incredible 10st in just 18 months.
She said: When Talia started walking, I could barely keep up with her. I had such intense back pains from my weight that I could barely carry her, and even just playing on the ground with her exhausted me. I knew that I'd have to get my health on track if I wanted to be the best Mum I could be for her.
Amazingly, these reality TV stars have lost more than 40st between them... all thanks to healthy eating and exercise

The 23-year-old continued: For a long time, I thought I felt okay. I had tried so many ways to lose weight that never worked, so I had pretty much given up on trying and was ready to just live contently as a plus size person.
It wasn't until after I had my daughter that I realised how depressed I really was. I shut myself in the house all of the time, didn't want to go anywhere, didn't want to talk to anyone, mostly because I was ashamed of how much weight I had gained.
I was just tired and unhappy, and that's not how I wanted to be as a mom and person, especially since I was only 21 years old!

The surgery and ditching her unhealthy snack habit allowed the massive weight loss but it also left Amanda with 3st of excess skin.
The California woman had skin hanging from her stomach, legs and arms and the only way to get rid of the skin was through surgery.
Amanda fundraised the 7740 she needed for surgery in which doctors removed the excess skin and left Amanda with a flat stomach and weighing a svelte 12.8st.
JAM PRESS
Amanda stated: I went from eating junk food and living a very sedentary life, to now eating a high protein, low carb diet and working out 5-6 days a week.
The weight came off easy at first, but now that I am almost 3 years post op, maintaining the weight loss and losing more is getting more difficult. After about 18 months post op, the effects of the gastric bypass start to wear off and it's basically relying on your new healthy lifestyle to keep you going.
Losing the excess skin has resulted in Amanda being more confident than ever as she happily shows off her new body.
She added: Im more confident than ever! I know I've worked hard for my current body, and that makes me love it that much more!

SBS show The Obesity Myth is breaking down stigma – The Weekly Review
Photo: supplied
Obesity is a predominantly genetic disease, rather than a lifestyle choice thats the central premise of a new SBS show calledThe Obesity Myth.
The show, which followed doctors and patients at the University of Melbournes Austin Health forsix months, aimsto dispel the stigma attached to obesity.
Austin Healths Weight Control Clinic head professor Joseph Proietto says obese people face constant discrimination.
There is a lot of misunderstanding and misinformation about obesity in the community its an injustice, he says.Gluttony is seen as sinful, and to commit a sin you have to use free will. So the idea has been that people choose to be fat.
The world-renowned obesity management expert says he hopes the program will show obesity is far more complicated than generallythought.
Recent research has revealed how the body regulates weight through the hormones leptin (which decreases appetite) and ghrelin (which increases it). Whenpeople lose weight, their leptin levels decreaseand their ghrelin levels increase.
In 2011, Austin Health discovered levels of otherhormones also change according to weight gain or loss, and that those changes are enduring. Proiettosays this evidence points strongly to weight gain being genetic.
Finding that hormone changes after weight loss are long-lasting showed us that medication needs to be life-long, he says. Obesity is a chronic condition.
In 2014, another of the clinics studies showed the rate of weight loss did not affect how quickly weight was regained, and that more people succeeded in a rapid weight-loss program than a gradual program.

To combat obesity in patients, the clinics physicians conduct a thorough history and targeted examination, then offer a partial, very-low-energy diet thatreplaces breakfast and lunch.
After theyve lost all the weight they want to lose, whether it takes three months, six months or a year, then we wean them off the diet and back onto things like carbs and fruit, Proietto says.
A dietician will outlinea balanced, energy-reduced diet, and the clinic will continue to follow the patientsprogress. If theyre struggling to keep weight off because of increased hunger, medication is prescribed.
Proietto hopes the clinics research intoobesity will become common knowledge.
GPs are getting better at treating this condition than they used to be, he says. Hopefully they will continue to educate the public to try to dispel this myth.
If youre struggling with obesity Proietto says not to beat yourself around the head, because its probably genetic. He suggests seeking medical assistance.
Speak to your doctor about it, and see if you can get some help, he says.

Struggling to lose weight? This is probably what you’re doing wrong – SmoothFM (registration)
Coming out of the winter months, its not unusual to be carrying a few extra stubborn kilos (cold weather all but calls for starch and carbs who are we to question that?). As we move into the early stages of spring many of you may be thinking of changing up your diets (or not you do you!) in the hope of slimming down for the warmer months. However, its all too easy to pick up bad habits in the attempt to drop weight fast which may just be stopping you from losing weight altogether.
For this reason, we chatted with Susie Burrell, a nutritionist with Bounce, about her tips on making healthier choices when eating.
According to Burrell, the single biggest mistake when it comes to dieting is going too hard, too fast. The nutritionist shared that extreme diets are not sustainable and will likely cause you to fall back into old habits quickly:
Choosing a diet that is too restrictive, lasting a few days then resorting to their regular eating habits! When it comes to long term weight loss, slow and steady always wins the race.
On snacking (a vice for many of us) Burrell suggested replacing sweet treats with healthy alternatives like frozen fresh fruit pured into yoghurt, fresh fruit dipped in a little dark chocolate or healthy baked vege and fruit muffins or banana loaves.
You can also add protein balls into the mix as a snack that will keep you full between meals:
There are very few high protein, nutritionally balanced snacks and Bounce balls tick all these boxes in a tasty, portioned controlled snack.
For those who are fans of breaking a sweat, Burrell stressed that the food you fuel your body with before and after a workout can have a major impact on your results. Dont be afraid of carbs in this case, she advised:
You need a small amount of carb to actually burn body fat so a couple of crackers or a banana before a high-intensity workout is the key followed by a decent recovery meal such as eggs on toast or a chicken or tuna sandwich or wrap.
With a few tweaks and an active lifestyle, you should be shedding the winter weight in no time.

Gastric balloon helping Kiwis lose weight without surgery – New Zealand Herald
An Auckland clinic is offering obese Kiwis the chance to lose weight and feel full without resorting to stomach stapling.
One in three New Zealand adults are obese, making us the third-fattest nation in the world behind the USA and Mexico.
As many patients struggle to get in shape through conventional diet and exercise regimes, Remuera's MacMurray Centre has introduced a non-surgical weight loss system to help fight the epidemic - but there are risks involved.
The procedure involves a gastric balloon which can be inserted in 20 minutes and makes people feel full faster.
A soft, silicone balloon is inserted down a patient's throat, placed in the stomach, filled to the right size with sterile salt water and taken out six months later.
MacMurray Centre director Dr Alasdair Patrick said the Orbera balloon took up about a third of a person's stomach once inflated and helped to control over-eating.
"The person starts eating and they quickly feel full. It really does change their behavior," he said.
"They learn how to eat smaller meals. If you think about people carrying all that extra weight, they find it difficult to exercise. This gives them a second chance."
The product is part of a growing international trend of non-surgical weight loss options. A similar product, the Elipse Balloon, which is available overseas, can be swallowed like a pill and filled using a thin catheter. After about four months it spontaneously bursts and is excreted.
However, the US Food and Drug Administration issued a warning about such devices earlier this month, stating there had been seven unanticipated deaths that occurred in patients with liquid-filled intragastric balloon systems in the last 18 months - five of them with the Orbera system.
The agency said the root cause and incidence rate had not yet been established, nor had the deaths been definitively attributed to the devices. The organisation recommended close monitoring of patients with the devices.
Patrick said it was five cases out of 277,000 and none were definitively due to the procedure.
"These are often morbidly obese people who have significant health problems. When you take 277,000 of these sorts of patients there is a good chance that, unfortunately, some may have an unexpected event that may well have happened whether they had a balloon inserted or not," he said.
Patrick said he always warned patients of the risks and would inform future patients of the FDA warning but believed the benefits outweighed the risks, particularly because performing gastric bypass surgery on obese people was also risky.
Patrick said people using the Orbera technology could expect to lose three times as much weight as diet and exercise alone.
People typically lost 10-15kgs, about 10 per cent of their body weight, in the six months it was in place and 70 per cent of people kept the weight off, he said.
During the six months it was in place and the six months following, patients worked with weight loss experts on a personalised plan to adopt new eating and exercise habits.
Patrick said the procedure had been used to treat about 220,000 people around the world over the last 20 years and he believed Kiwis could benefit from it.
"The biggest problem we are facing in New Zealand is obesity. It's hard to believe we are the third most obese country in the world," Patrick said.
"Obviously because it's such an epidemic in New Zealand we need things to fight that."
Considering all the issues caused by obesity, including heart disease, strokes and diabetes, it was worse than cancer, he said.
Patrick said the clinic already had 10 patients enrolled and in various phases of the procedure, which costs at least $8850.
Anyone over 18 with a Body Mass Index between 30 and 40 was eligible but had to show they were determined to see it through.
"The person has to be motivated to understand that this is their second chance. The person has to be committed."
One patient signed up for the procedure when he realised, while planning a family holiday, that his weight meant he could not do the things he wanted to with his children.
He still had a month left until the balloon was removed but had already dropped down from 132kg to 114kg.
Dunedin School of Medicine dean and childhood obesity specialist Barry Taylor said gastric balloons had potential because they were less invasive and cheaper than bariatric surgery but more research was needed first.
More work was needed to reduce the risk and to study the long term outcomes for patients, he said.
Clinical trials did not yet have any long term data to show whether patients kept the weight off a few years down the track, he said.
A soft balloon is inserted down a patient's throat and inflated in their stomach to make them feel full. Doctors using the procedure say patients typically lose10-15kgs - about 10 per cent of their body weight - and 70 per cent keep the weight off. An independent expert says gastric balloons have potential and are cheaper than surgery but the long term effects are not yet known. The cost of the programme in New Zealand starts from $8850.

Here’s what Conor McGregor may be doing to his body as he sheds weight for his fight against Floyd Mayweather – STAT
B
efore he faces off against undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather, UFC champion Conor McGregor must conquer the scale.
And that could prove an even more dangerous opponent.
In pre-fight trash talk, Mayweather has claimed that McGregor looks extremely heavy and has been scrambling to try to drop 10 pounds. (Both fighters have to come in under 154 pounds at the weigh-in on Friday afternoon if their much-hyped bout is to proceed.)
advertisement
The truth is, though, shedding 10 pounds in a couple days is no big deal for most MMA fighters.In the past, McGregor has reportedly cut more than 25 pounds in eight days time.
The key question is whether they can do it without damaging their health. And even the nutritionist charged with guiding McGregor to his fighting weight said thats a difficult balance.
Its nothing Id recommend to everyday people, George Lockhart, the nutritionist, told STAT in an interview. I always tell people if health was your number one priority, MMA is not the sport you should be going into.
MMA fighters are known to dehydrate themselves using everything from saunas to sweat suits, hot baths to water pills to shed up to dozens of pounds in the days ahead of a weigh-in. After making weight, they try to quickly regain it by eating food and drinking water in hopes of gaining the competitive advantage of size over their opponent.
Lockhart, a former fighter and Marineveteran, generally starts on the Tuesday before a weigh-in. He removes sodium from a fighters diet and offers herbal diuretics that include potassium to replenish lost nutrients. Hell also have a fighter taper water consumption over several days two gallons on Tuesday, one gallon on Wednesday, occasional sips when thirsty on Thursday. The day before the weigh in, Lockhart takes carbohydrates out of fighters diet and cleans out his or her intestinal tract. On that final night, fighters sometimes work out or take a hot bath.He monitors vitals, including body temperature and blood pressure, throughout the process.
Ten pounds in four days is like a hiccup, Lockhart said. What Floyds talking about, it just shows hes probably never cut weight before.
But dropping weight that fast even just 10 pounds draws concerns from doctors. Dr. Larry Lovelace, a ringside physician in California, told STAT several fighters have died over the past few years from the practice, which athletic officials have called the biggest problem in the sport today.
A 2013 study in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research found that 39 percent of MMA fighters studied experienced significant or serious dehydration before their fights. Lovelace said the body doesnt fully rehydrate for at least two days well after a fight ends. That means fighters could experience muscle cramps and loss in agility while in the ring, he said.
It only takes 2 percent dehydration to impair your performance, Lovelace said. Theres no way theyre going to recover, and its definitely going to affect their performance.
There are bigger health risks, too. They include:
The brain: When a fighter takes a punch to the head, the brain rattles off the front and the back of the skull. Thats not healthy in the best of conditions. Dehydration makes it worse. The brain is bathed in fluid, said Dr. Edmund Ayoub, vice president of the Association of Ringside Physicians. Without that fluid, the brain has less cushion. Therefore, the risk of injury could be greater for a fighter who spars during the process of weight cutting. The brain can hit harder against the skull, Ayoub said. You may have more [risk for] brain injury.
The heart: A fighters heart beats faster than normal when dehydrated. If you normally walk around with a resting heart rate of 72, now it may be 90 or 100, Lovelace said. So going into a cage to fight, there are potential cardiac risks.
In a 2013 interview with Vice Sports, ringside physician Dr. Michael Kelly said dehydration can impact how the body regulates sodium and potassium levels and, in turn, mess with the cardiac fibers conducting electricity inside the heart. So if those signals arent propagating along the channel correctly, Kelly said, the heart can go into an irregular heartbeat or fatal heart rhythm and wind up in cardiac arrest.
The kidneys:Nephrons, the tiny structures inside the kidney that produce urine to remove waste from the body, malfunction without enough water.Your kidneys literally dry up, Ayoub said. When kidneys get dried up, you can get kidney damage. In 2015, fighter Johny Hendricks had to be rushed to the emergency room after weight cutting led to intestinal blockage and a kidney stone. Doctors say theyre also at risk of sustaining chronic kidney issues due to the practice.
Ayoub thinks fighters would remain healthy if they made sure to lose no more than 2 percent of their body weight each week. If McGregor had to lose 10 pounds, for instance, he should aim to shed it over three weeks instead of just one, Ayoub said.
Lovelace, though, said there is nothing to be gained from the practice of weight cutting,in part because both fighters are often doing the same thing, canceling out any potential advantage from packing on pounds immediately after the weigh-in.
Lockhart, for his part, believes fighters will keep cutting weight no matter what. So he considers it his job to help them do it as safely as possible. Theres no degree for weight cutting, Lockhart said. You need people to show them how to do it in the proper way.
MMA writer Iain Kidd, who has observed Lockharts training methods for a forthcoming book, puts it this way: There are ways to do it safer but not ways to do it safely.

Susie Burrell reveals fastest ways to lose weight – Gears Of Biz
While you might be aware that fad diets are not always the answer for those who want to keep off weight, there are some ways you can quickly shed kilos and stay that way.
Australian nutritionist, Susie Burrell, recently shared the fastest ways to lose weight and they include cutting carbs, ditching liquid calories and switching one meal for soup, salad or a shake.
Here, FEMAIL reveals some of Susies top tips. Youll be in shape for summer in no time.
Top of Susies list for quick and healthy weight loss is carbs or rather a lack thereof.
While carbohydrates are necessary for proper metabolic and brain function, Susie said in general we eat far too many of them and a quick way to shift kilos is to cut back:
Overall a slightly lower carbohydrate intake, where we keep our fuel low at night by focusing meals around protein and vegetables is a safe and sustainable weight loss strategy, she told news.com.au.
Try salmon with zucchini noodles for a nutritious but filling dinner option.
While you might think that a snack here and there has little effect on your ability to lose weight, Susie said that often we underestimate the impact snacking has on our daily calorie intake.
In general the message of small regular meals has been translated into large regular meals with us frequently enjoying milk coffee, fruit, nuts and snack bars throughout the day, or an extra 400-600 calories, she told the publication.
The nutritionist said that unless you are training for an hour or more each day, you only need one or two small snacks.
Alternatively, cut out the smaller things altogether, in favour or slightly bigger or more protein-rich meals.
If you want to lose weight quickly, Susie said you need to keep at least one mealtimes calories low.
But whether you choose a meal replacement shake, soup or salad is up to you.
In each of these cases, calorie intake at one meal is cut to just 200-300 calories, which can be half of that of regular meals which keeps your overall calorie intake lower without you even realising it, she said.
Susie recently shared a recipe for her Spring Reset Detox Soup.
Serves six
INGREDIENTS:
2 teaspoons of olive oil
1 leek, thinly sliced
1 onion, finely chopped
2 cups salt-reduced vegetable stock and 3 cups water
410g can chopped tomatoes
1 carrot, peeled and cut into 1cm cubes
500g pumpkin, cut into 1cm cubes
1/2 celery, chopped
METHOD:
1) Heat the olive oil with onion in a large saucepan. Add the leek and gently cook over a low heat until soft, then add the stock, tomatoes, carrot and pumpkin.
2) Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 30-40 minutes.
Lastly, its a case of ditching the coffees, wines, smoothies and liquid sugars if you want to shed fat.
According to Susie, not only does drinking liquid calories mean we will automatically eat less, but it also plays havoc with our natural hunger and fullness signals.
Susie recommends keeping your liquid calories to a minimum. If you find it hard to give up coffee, at least choose a piccolo. Alternatively, drink herbal tea or water.
