Associations of changes in physical activity and sedentary time with weight recurrence after bariatric surgery: a 5-year prospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Increasing physical activity and limiting sedentary time may minimize weight recurrence after bariatric surgery. However, few studies have evaluated potential associations of objectively-measured physical activity and sedentary time with post-surgical weight recurrence over time.

Aims

To evaluate associations of change in physical activity and sedentary time with weight recurrence after bariatric surgery.

Methods

Participants from the Oslo Bariatric Surgery Study, a prospective cohort study, wore an ActiGraph monitor for seven days at 1- and 5 years after surgery to assess daily physical activity and sedentary time. Participants' weight was measured at in-person clinic visits. Chi-square Test and Paired-samples T-test evaluated group differences and change
