Changes in FFM were assessed by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), hydrostatic weighing (HW) and nitrogen balance (N).<BR/><BR/>REE decreased 11.5% from 7.8 +/- 1.0 to 6.9 +/- 0.8 MJ/d.<BR/><BR/>Total weight loss was 8.4 +/- 1.9 kg or 7.4% with an estimated FFM loss of 3.4 +/- 1.8 (BIA), 2.9 +/- 1.9 (HW) and 1.8 +/- 1.0 (N).<BR/><BR/>As the fall in REE was larger than the loss of FFM, it is concluded that morbid obese patients develop an energy saving adaptation during rapid weight loss.Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01732080096484125282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-40383588182017958202008-06-06T03:50:00.000+02:002008-06-06T03:50:00.000+02:00Danni, those were my thoughts exactly.
