Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of canagliflozin, a medication approved by the FDA for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, on body weight and metabolism in people with type 2 diabetes who are overweight or obese. Canagliflozin lowers glucose levels in the blood by making the kidneys excrete, rather than absorb, glucose. Canagliflozin is also often associated with weight loss. The study population will generally be type 2 diabetics, ages 18-75 years old, who are overweight or obese.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in Body Weight
Body weight will be measured at each study visit (screening visit, enrollment (study week 0), and at study weeks 2, 4, 8, 12 and 18). Change in body weight will be calculated using ANOVA such that body weight at all time points is included in the data analysis, rather than simply comparing weight at the enrollment visit to weight at the final study visit.
18 weeks (duration of study)
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Change in Resting Energy Expenditure, Measured Using Indirect Calorimetery
18 weeks (duration of study)
Change in Body Composition, Measured Using DXA Scanning.
