Physiological Predictors of Weight Regain at 1-Year Follow-Up in Weight-Reduced Adults with Obesity.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:This study aimed to assess whether changes in resting metabolic rate (RMR), exercise-induced energy expenditure (EIEE), and appetite following weight loss (WL) are associated with weight regain at 1 year. METHODS:Thirty-six adults with obesity underwent 8 weeks of a very-low-energy diet, followed by 4 weeks of refeeding and a 1-year maintenance program. RMR, EIEE, appetite ratings, and active ghrelin, peptide YY, glucagon-like peptide-1, cholecystokinin, and insulin concentrations were measured at baseline, week 13, and 1 year. RESULTS:A 17% WL (-20?±?5 kg [mean?±?SD]; range: -11.7 to -32.2 kg; P?
