CDR+: with experimentally induced cognitive dietary restraint; CDR−: without experimentally induced cognitive dietary restraint; RMR: resting metabolic rate. aBaseline values did not differ significantly between groups (unpaired t-test). bAll values are mean ± SD. Analysis was performed on inverse transformed values.
