Summary

Certain blood markers are related to one's ability to successfully lose weight by diet and exercise. Currently, the laboratory tests used to measure these blood markers are expensive and time-consuming. Recently, the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, at NDSU, invented a device that may be able to measure these blood markers much more quickly and affordably. This study is designed participate, to compare our new device to previous methods. If the new sensor is successful, it will be used as diagnostic tool to personalize weight loss strategies.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

250 kcal Dietary Energy Restriction

The nutrition intervention will be individualized and implemented as a free-living energy-restricted eating plan where energy intake will be based on a mild restriction (approx. 250 kcal/day).

OTHER

Aerobic Exercise

Supervised aerobic exercise will be combined with the energy restriction. Individuals will perform aerobic exercise (treadmill, cycle, or rower or combination) 4-5 days per week for 12 weeks. At each session they will expend 250 or more calories to further meet or exceed the 500 kcal energy deficit.
