Changes in Body Composition, Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors, and Eating Behavior after an Intensive Lifestyle Intervention with High Volume of Physical Activity in Severely Obese Subjects: A Prospective Clinical Controlled Trial

Table 2

Between-group differences in changes in body composition from week 0 to weeks 10–14. Data are mean values (standard deviation or 95% CI).

Body weight (kg)	−17.5 (6.1)	−0.5 (2.8)	−17.0 (−18.7, −15.3)	<0.0001
Fat mass (kg)	−15.7 (5.3)	−0.4 (5.0)	−15.2 (−17.4, −13.1)	<0.0001
Fat-free mass (kg)	−1.7 (2.5)	−0.5 (2.1)	−1.2 (−2.2, −0.2)	0.016
Skeletal muscle mass (kg)	−1.2 (1.5)	0.2 (3.6)	−1.4 (−2.4, −0.4)	0.005
