| Baseline | After weight loss | P value | |
|---|---|---|---|

| Weight (kg) | 77.8±6.9 | 65.3±5.9 | <0.001 |
| FM (kg) | 32.5±4.7 | 21.6±4.2 | <0.001 |
| FFM (kg) | 41.5±3.6 | 40.5±3.6 | <0.001 |
| RMRm (kcal/day) | 1440±203 | 1305±129 | <0.001 |
| RMRp (kcal/day) | 1440±115 | 1351±106 | <0.001 |

Data shown as mean±SD. FM: fat mass; FFM: fat-free mass; RMR: resting metabolic rate; RMRm: RMR measured; RMRp: RMR predicted.
