The above article, published online on July 9, 2013, in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal’s Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Eric Ravussin, The Obesity Society, and Wiley Periodicals LLC after concerns regarding possible image manipulation were raised. The authors were unable to provide the raw data and unedited images for the editorial team’s review. Therefore, the journal no longer has confidence in the results and conclusions drawn.
