Comparison was made of the food eaten and the amount and degree of participation in physical activity of 14 obese adolescent boys in relation. to that of paired control non-obese boys during a summer camp season and for the previous school year.
The energy intake of the obese boys was significantly less than that of the non-obese controls. Little difference was noted in the amount of time scheduled for light, moderate, and very active exercise but the degree of participation in the active exercises was observed to be generally less for the obese than for the non-obese
