We are pleased to hear from Cathy Breen, Chair of ASOI who coordinated development of the new Irish obesity treatment guidelines, Susie Birney, President of ICPO who brought the patient perspective into the guideline development process, and Ximena Ramos Salas representing Obesity Canada, who supported the guideline development process, which was based on an adaptation of the recent Canadian obesity guidelines. The launch of the new Irish Clinical Practice Guidelines for Obesity takes place 25 October.
Living with obesity in adolescence is associated with high levels of depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. It is also associated with more weight loss attempts, more weight fluctuation, and feelings of helplessness. Compared to adult-onset obesity in later life, it is also associated with higher BMI and great risk of type 2 diabetes; action is needed early.
