Obesity is one of the most critical health issues of the twenty-first century, particularly among African American women. The benefits of physical activity and behavioral therapy are well documented in the literature, however, weight loss maintenance continues to pose a significant challenge. African American women have the highest rates of obesity, but research has not adequately assessed their weight-related psychosocial predictors to weight loss.

Obesity is one of the most critical health issues of the twenty-first century, particularly among African American women. The benefits of physical activity and behavioral therapy are well documented in the literature, however, weight loss maintenance continues to pose a significant challenge. African American women have the highest rates of obesity, but research has not adequately assessed their weight-related psychosocial predictors to weight loss.

The purpose of this study was to test predictions of baseline self-concept variables on body mass index (BMI) and fitness improvements by performing a secondary data analysis of a lifestyle intervention for adult African American women. Over one year, women participated in a community-based, culturally-tailored nutrition and physical activity intervention. Assessments were made at 2 and 12 months.

Results revealed no significant effects of baseline self-concept measures (exercise self-efficacy, self-esteem, and body image) on either fitness or BMI improvements over one year in this population in either study condition. Baseline ethnic identity and body image measures were not significantly correlated.

$a
Although not significant, a trend showed baseline levels of exercise self-efficacy and self-esteem effected fitness improvements differently depending on experimental condition at 2 months follow-up. Among those with lower self-efficacy and self-esteem at baseline, those in the intervention group showed greater fitness improvement compared to those in the control group.

A non-significant trend showed that, of those with lower baseline body image scores (poorer perception of their appearance), those in the experimental group maintained their BMI whereas those in the control group had increased their BMI at 12 months follow-up. Every level of baseline body image score (low, medium, and high) had increased BMIs at 12 months.

Participants with higher baseline body image scores (more positive perceptions of their appearance) had lower baseline BMIs. Lastly, more positive body image scores predicted better fitness levels at 2 and 12 months. The lack of hypothesized outcomes in this study underscore the challenge of finding theory-based predictors of weight loss and maintenance among African American women.
