Summary

The aim of this pilot feasibility and acceptability, randomized clinical trial will be to examine the effects of two-time restricted eating (TRE) interventions on weight loss maintenance (WLM). This study will be conducted in 40 individuals with non-surgical weight loss of ≥5% initial body weight recruited from the NYU Langone Health Weight Management Program and NY-MOVE! Weight Management Clinic at the Manhattan VA. Measurements will occur at baseline, 4 and 12 weeks. Participants will be randomized with equal allocation to 2 groups: (1) TRE6 or (2) TRE10. The TRE6 will restrict their eating window to 6 hours per day and the TRE10 to 10 hours per day.

BEHAVIORAL

Time Restricted Eating (TRE)

TRE involves only consuming food and beverages during a particular consecutive time period - in the case of this study, either 6 hours or 10 hours. Participants will self-select the timing of their first eating occasion of the day, with the provision that their first meal of the day will be consumed within 3 hours of their wake- up time and finished no less than 3 hours prior to bed time. During the fasting period, participants will be encouraged to drink water, and will be permitted to consume zero-calorie beverages. Participants will be instructed to self-monitor all eating occasions using the MyCircadianClock (mCC) smartphone app, which date- and time-stamps all food entries. Participants will also be instructed to self-monitor their body weight daily using a Bluetooth-enabled Renpho scale, which permits remote collection of body weight.
