Long-term effects of a lifestyle intervention on weight and cardiovascular risk factors in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus: four-year results of the Look AHEAD trial.

TL;DR: Intensive lifestyle intervention can produce sustained weight loss and improvements in fitness, glycemic control, and CVD risk factors in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of 6-month calorie restriction on biomarkers of longevity, metabolic adaptation, and oxidative stress in overweight individuals: a randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that 2 biomarkers of longevity (fasting insulin level and body temperature) are decreased by prolonged calorie restriction in humans and support the theory that metabolic rate is reduced beyond the level expected from reduced metabolic body mass.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and BMI in relation to self-perception of overweight

TL;DR: Self-perceived overweight varied by sex, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, and the odds ratio of perceived overweight was significantly higher in women, whites, and individuals with higher body mass index, higher income, and higher education.

Development and Validation of the Food-Craving Inventory

Effects of stevia, aspartame, and sucrose on food intake, satiety, and postprandial glucose and insulin levels
