α1 men | α1 = 0.54; slope between data points: (28.4kg, 67.7kg) (23.6kg,65.1kg) | Weight loss study: [37] |
α1 women | α1 = 0.324; slope between data points: (44.2kg,49.6kg) and (37.7kg,47.5kg) | Weight loss study: [11] |
f | f = 0.30 | Estimate from: [19] |
β | β = 1.14: overfeeding, β = 0.075: caloric restriction | Estimates from: [27, 46] |
a* |
a = 0.334, 0.059 for a 500 kcal/day reduction to baseline for 3 months, 6 months a = 0.27, 0.053 for a very low calorie diet; 3 month and 6 month |
Percentages calculated from data in [29] |
The parameter e is required only for overfeeding simulations and the parameter a is nonzero for caloric restriction simulations.
