Primary outcomes

• Total Energy Expenditure, Assessed by Indirect Calorimetry Using Stable Isotopes — Start of Trial (time of randomization, post-weight loss) through 20 weeks' weight loss maintenance
  Total energy expenditure (TEE), assessed by indirect calorimetry using stable isotopes Total calories burned: Participants each drank about a cup of water containing special tracers which are measurable when they pass out of the body through urine. They provided a urine sample before they drank the water and then about every other day for the next two (2) weeks. Change: average (midpoint of test phase, end of test phase) - start of trial
