Popis: | Prospects for changing multiple health behaviors conjointly remain controversial. We compared effects on tobacco abstinence and weight gain of adding diet and exercise concurrently or after smoking treatment. Female regular smokers (n=315) randomized to 3 conditions received 16 weeks of behavioral smoking treatment, quit at week 5, and were followed for 9 months after the quit date. Weight management was added to the first 8 weeks for Early Diet (ED), the final 8 weeks for Late Diet (LD), and omitted for Control. Both Diet groups tended to show greater bio-verified abstinence than Control although differences were nonsignificant. Compared to Control, ED initially suppressed weight gain but lost that effect over time, whereas LD initially lacked but gradually acquired a weight suppression effect that stabilized [p = .004]. Behavioral weight control did not undermine smoking cessation and slowed the rate of weight gain when initiated after the smoking quit date, supporting a sequential approach to multiple behavior change. |
