I'm guest posting at Mademoiselle Slimalicious, retelling the story of how I got motivated to lose weight after moving to France. 21. Karlsson J, Persson LO, Sjostrom L, Sullivan M. Psychometric properties and factor structure of the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ) in obese men and women. Results from the Swedish Obese Subjects (SOS) study. Int J Obes Relat Metab Disord. 2000;24(12):1715-1725.
A possible reason for the inconsistent association among the survey waves could be the different methods used for the assessment of water consumption. In the period from 1999 to 2004, plain and carbonated water consumption was assessed by a 24-h recall and by additional questions on water consumption asked after the recall. In the survey wave from 2005 to 2006, the data on water consumption was collected by integrated questions in a 24-h dietary recall. The authors stated that this was the reason for the stratified analyses by survey wave and suggested that this could explain why the association between water consumption and body weight status was only significant in the earlier wave period. The analysis was adjusted for several covariates, such as socioeconomic characteristics, health and smoking status, and indicators of physical activity and energy intake, that can influence the water needs and losses of the body.
