Interventions

In the intervention arm of this non randomized, open label study to assess the effects of weight loss on insulin sensitivity and leptin tolerance subjects will use full meal replacement products (1280-1320kcal/day). Subjects will be on the full meal replacement products only, for the first 12 weeks, between 13 to 19 weeks they will be transitioned to regular food, from 19 weeks and going forward they will be on chronic maintenance phase
