We got all warm and fuzzy reading Cheryl Strayed's "Baby Weight," years before she reached her current perch on the top of the bestseller list with her hiking-as-redemption memoir "Wild," and we agonized alongside Adrienne Jones when we read "Love With Teeth," on parenting her deeply difficult infant son Carter.
After adjustment for potential confounding factors such as age, height, weight, years since menopause, and daily calcium intake, subjects with genotype 20+ (n=64) had lower bone mineral density values and a significantly greater risk for osteoporosis (OR 4.2, 95% CI 1.0 17.2) when compared with subjects with genotype 20− (n=104) at the femoral neck.
Player characteristics recorded were age, height, weight, years of experience as a soccer player and soccer injuries sustained during the previous year (number and location).
Information on age, height, weight, years in the trade, knee complaints (Nordic Health Questionnaire and the KOOS) knee traumas, and knee-straining sports activity were collected by questionnaires.
These variables included age, gender, body height and weight, years of completed education, living status, self-reported chronic conditions, use of medication, falls in the previous half year, and concern about falling [ 43] (Table 1).
Stepwise logistic regression analysis for the presence of grade 2/3 VFs (grade 1 VFs were excluded from this analysis) included age, weight, years of menopause, number of pregnancies, 25(OH D, and the presence of osteoporosis any site (lumbar spine, femoral neck and/or total hip).

"Since that child was one year old, she would have been putting on weight, year after year after year.
This is a more startling observation than the obesity epidemic: Many people maintain the same weight, year-in and year-out, without even trying.
