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

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...
