    Matheson DM, Wang Y, Klesges LM, Beech BM, Kraemer HC, Robinson TN. Obes Res. 2004: 12 Suppl 32S-37S

    Television viewing has been associated with childhood obesity, although the mechanisms that link television viewing to higher BMI have not been established. Therefore, our objectives, in this report, were to describe the amount and types of foods that African-American girls consume while watching television and to examine the associations between African-American girls' BMI and the food they consume while watching television.
