Summary
This study looks at how losing fat versus muscle during a low-calorie diet changes your resting metabolic rate. About 150 adults with overweight or obesity will follow a structured diet, and researchers will measure body composition and metabolism before and after. The goal is to understand why some people experience a bigger drop in metabolism, which could help improve future weight loss programs.
