A new study looks at whether timing of meals or overall caloric intake have more impact on weigh loss.
“We were most interested in weight gain prevention,” study co-author Dr. Wendy Bennett, associate professor of medicine at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, tells TODAY.com. “Over time, people tend to gain about one pound per year. So our question was: If you change your eating patterns a little bit, can you prevent weight gain creep?”
Overall, most of the volunteers in the study were white, with 12% identifying as Black and 3% identifying as Asian. The average age of the participants was 51, and most had a college education or higher. The average body mass index was 30.8, which is considered obese. On average, the time between the volunteers’ first meal and last was 11.5 hours, and the researchers reported that this timing was not associated with weight change. The average amount of time between waking and breakfast was 1.6 hours; the average amount of time between dinner and going to sleep was 4.0 hours; and the average amount of time sleeping was 7.5 hours.
