Calorie Restriction Only

Sleep & Calorie Restriction

Arm Description

Participants in this group will be decreasing their caloric intake to approximately 95% of their resting metabolic rate. We will provide one meal for 4 days of the week, and participants will be required to keep an accurate dietary record of all food and drink. Participants assigned to this group will be instructed to keep a fixed sleep schedule based on their own sleep/napping habits.

Participants in this group will decrease their caloric intake to approximately 95% of their resting metabolic rate in addition to reducing their total time in bed by 90 minutes 5 days a week.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

body composition measured via DXA scans
Body composition will be measured via DXA scans prior to intervention and post intervention to compare losses in lean body mass and fat mass.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine whether chronic moderate sleep restriction effects the amount of body fat and lean mass loss, and calorie expenditure, in individuals who are participating in a dietary weight loss program.
Detailed Description
Participants will be randomly assigned to an 8-week program of either restricted diet alone, or restricted diet with restricted sleep for 5 days a week. The total expected duration of participation is approximately 3 months.
