SSB, sugar-sweetened beverages; WC, waist circumference; TBFM, total body fat mass.
Change in SSB, ∆SSB=SSB (servings/d) at age 13 years – SSB (servings/d) at age 10 years.
Model 1: ∆SSB (servings/d), SSB at age 10 years (servings/d), sex, BMI or TBFM at age 13 years, and baseline age, height and WC. For TBFM models, BMI at age 10 years was used for baseline adiposity adjustment. Model 2: model 1 + covariates (physical activity at age 13 years, pubertal stage at age 13 years, maternal overweight/obesity status, maternal education, dieting at age 13 years, and change in fruit juice, fruit and vegetable, and total fat intakes from ages 10 to 13 years. Model 3: model 2 +dietary reporting errors at age 13 years. Model 4: model 2 among plausible dietary reporters at age 13 years only (n 1059).
