Schematic representation of study design and measurements. Anthropometric measurements M1: before intervention; M2: end of weight loss period; M3: end of weight stable period; M4: end of follow up period. Weight loss (WL) = M2 − M1; weight regain (WR) = M4 − M3. Baseline diet = D1, weight maintenance (WM) diet = average of D2 and D3. Physical activity was measured during M1, M2, M3 and M4.
