- Values for C12, the last week before energy restriction was imposed, were used as t = 0 in the model. S12 and S24 are the values recorded during the 12th and 24th weeks of energy restriction (t = 12 and 24 weeks, respectively).
- aAll parameter values were calculated from group mean data at C12, S12 and S24 by the 3 point method. Mean stature was 1.788 m.
- bFat free mass was calculated by subtracting measured fat mass from body mass.
- cActive tissue mass equals body mass minus the sum of fat mass, bone mineral, and thiocyanate space. Group data for active tissue mass, and red blood cell mass are from Table 152, and mean chest girths are from Table 49 [1].
- dSum of girths of calf, arm and thigh. REE, resting energy expenditure.
