Obesity, now considered an epidemic in the United States and other nations, affects 54.9% of American adults, substantially raises the risk of morbidity from numerous diseases, and poses a major public health challenge. Several scholars assert that obesity is the second leading cause of preventable death (Ross, Janssen. & Tremblay, 2000; Yancey. et al., 2001). African American women have a higher prevalence of obesity and African Americans in general have disproportionally higher rates of mortality for the leading causes of death related to obesity linked illnesses. Although statistical reports indicate that African American women have a higher prevalence for obesity and its associated comorbidities (American Heart Association [AHA], 2001; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2000), very few research studies focusing on dietary or exercise modification have included African American women (Lee, McGinnis, Sallis, Castro, Chen, & Hickmann. 1997, Yancey, et al., 2001).

Obesity, now considered an epidemic in the United States and other nations, affects 54.9% of American adults, substantially raises the risk of morbidity from numerous diseases, and poses a major public health challenge. Several scholars assert that obesity is the second leading cause of preventable death (Ross, Janssen. & Tremblay, 2000; Yancey. et al., 2001). African American women have a higher prevalence of obesity and African Americans in general have disproportionally higher rates of mortality for the leading causes of death related to obesity linked illnesses. Although statistical reports indicate that African American women have a higher prevalence for obesity and its associated comorbidities (American Heart Association [AHA], 2001; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2000), very few research studies focusing on dietary or exercise modification have included African American women (Lee, McGinnis, Sallis, Castro, Chen, & Hickmann. 1997, Yancey, et al., 2001).

The purposes of this research were to: ascertain the current diet and exercise behaviors of three groups of middle class African American women; compare selected individual, physiologic measures, self reported diet behaviors, and self reported exercise behaviors of the groups; and determine what relationship exists between the individual middle class African American woman's stage of change and her self reported diet and exercise behaviors. This research study employed a comparative descriptive design to examine differences in selected individual, physiologic measures, stages of change, and self reported diet and exercise behaviors among middle class African American women. The sample consisted of 122 middle class African American women between the ages of 21 and 78. Methods of analyses included correlations, Chi-square, multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), and discriminant analysis.

Conclusions of this study were: (1) There were no significant differences in the self-reported diet and exercise behaviors in the three groups (ideal, overweight, obese) of middle class African American women; (2) The individual, physiologic measures for systolic and diastolic blood pressures of the women belonging to the obese body weight group were significantly elevated, ( p < .05); (3) The obese body weight group self-reported a significant (p < .05) number of health problems as compared to the other two groups in this sample; and (4) Women in the action stage of change for weight loss (persons consistently engaging in weight loss behaviors) self-reported consuming diets which were significantly lower in fat, ( p = .019), and self reported engaging in significantly more ( p = .005) physical activity. These findings are useful for health care providers who are interested in facilitating change in middle class African American women clients' diet and/or exercise behaviors.
