Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Percent Excess Weight Loss

    Calculated as the difference between the baseline weight and weight at endpoint divided by the difference between baseline weight and ideal body weight using the medium frame range in the Metropolitan Tables for Life Insurance, 1983 x 100.

    16 months

  • Resting Energy Expenditure

    Energy expended at rest (minimal movement) and during fasting. Resting Energy Expenditure can be expressed per minute or per hour or per day.

    16 months

  • Area Under the Curve of Ghrelin and GLP-1

    These variables will measure the combined effects of hormone concentration and duration.

    16 months

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Area Under the Curve of Timed Gastrointestinal Hormones (Insulin, GIP, Pancreatic Polypeptide, Peptide YY (PYY), Amylin, Glucagon, Pro-Insulin, C-Peptide)

    16 months

  • Adiponectin and Lectin

    16 months

  • Subject Questionnaires

    16 months

  • Area Under the Curve of Glucose

    16 months

  • Hemoglobin A1c and Lipid Panel

    16 months

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

  • Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) ≥ 1.5 times ULN according to VAMC normal ranges
  • Positive test results for Hepatitis A, B or C
  • Clinically active thyroid or lipid disorders:
  • Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) flagged as critical value (per VAMC lab normal ranges)
  • Triglycerides \> 400 mg/dL
