目标。探讨正常体重青少年的自我感觉超重是否会影响其成年后的体重发展，如果是的话，体育活动是否会调节这种关联。方法。在HUNT研究中，对1196名体重正常的青少年（13-19岁）进行了纵向研究，这些青少年在成年后（24-30岁）接受了随访。采用问卷方式评估生活方式和健康问题，并进行标准化人体测量。通过卡方计算和回归分析来调查自我感知超重与BMI或腰围（WC）变化（经年龄、年龄平方、性别和其他相关辅助因素调整）之间的关系。结果。被定义为正常体重但认为自己超重的青少年在进入青年期时体重增加幅度大于认为自己体重正常的青少年（BMI差：0.66单位[CI95%: 0.1, 1.2]， WC差：3.46厘米[CI95%: 1.8, 5.1]）。体力活动水平没有发现缓和这种关联。结论。这项研究揭示了青春期自我感觉超重可能会影响青春期到青年期的体重发展。这突出了在预防肥胖的公共卫生干预中注重身体形象的重要性，在考虑到身体形状的自然差异的情况下，赞成“健康”的体重。
Objectives. To explore if self-perceived overweight in normal weight adolescents influence their weight development into young adulthood and if so, whether physical activity moderates this association. Methods. A longitudinal study of 1196 normal weight adolescents (13–19 yrs) who were followed up as young adults (24–30 yrs) in the HUNT study. Lifestyle and health issues were assessed employing questionnaires, and standardized anthropometric measurements were taken. Chi square calculations and regression analyses were performed to investigate the associations between self-perceived overweight and change in BMI or waist circumference (WC) adjusted for age, age squared, sex, and other relevant cofactors. Results. Adolescents, defined as being normal weight, but who perceived themselves as overweight had a larger weight gain into young adulthood than adolescents who perceived themselves as normal weight (difference in BMI: 0.66 units [CI95%: 0.1, 1.2] and in WC: 3.46 cm [CI95%: 1.8, 5.1]). Level of physical activity was not found to moderate this association. Conclusions. This study reveals that self-perceived overweight during adolescence may affect development of weight from adolescence into young adulthood. This highlights the importance of also focusing on body image in public health interventions against obesity, favouring a “healthy” body weight taking into account natural differences in body shapes.
