Summary

This study aims to compare the effects of time-restricted eating (TRE, 16/8) in adults with obesity who have and have not undergone bariatric surgery (BS). The study will include adults aged 18-65 years: those with obesity who have not undergone BS, and those who have experienced insufficient weight loss (IWL) or weight regain (WR) following BS. Both groups will follow a 16:8 time-restricted eating protocol for 6 weeks, with an 8-hour eating window recommended between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, though participants may adjust to other 16-hour fasting windows. Participants will be evaluated before and after the intervention in terms of anthropometric measurements, biochemical parameters, and dietary habits. The study is being conducted at a private hospital in Bursa, Turkey, and is planned to be completed with a total of 40 participants (20 per group).
