Delta change in absolute resting energy expenditure (kcals•d^-1) at 0, 10 and 14 weeks HED = high-energy, high carbohydrate diet + exercise (n = 9); ND = no diet + exercise (n = 5); VLCHP = very low carbohydrate, high protein diet + exercise (n = 39); LCMP = Low carbohydrate, moderate protein + exercise (n = 36); HCLP = High carbohydrate, low protein + exercise (n = 43); CON = no diet + no exercise (n = 9). ‡Different from all groups except ND (p < 0.05), †Different from all three diet groups (e.g., VLCHP, LCMP, HCLP) (p < 0.05).
