      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: During 8-week ADF period, subjects consumed very low calorie diet (75% energy restriction) during the 3 fast days (Saturday, Monday, Wednesday) and then ate diet that providing 100% of their energy needs on each feed day (3 days a week). In Friday subjects consume ad libitum without limitation. ADF subjects were provided with meals on each fast day (ranging from 400- 600 kcal), and consumed ad libitum at home on feed day. The feed and fast days began at midnight each day, and all fast day meals were consumed between 12.00 pm and 2.00 pm to ensure that each subject was undergoing the same duration of fasting. all food prepared in the home. Subjects were permitted to consume calorie- free foods (such as water, green tea, coffee without sugar (&lt; 400 mg caffeine per day), non-starchy vegetable (such as lettuce, cucumber, green leaf, tomato) and sugar free gums on the fast day and were encouraged to drink plenty of water. Intervention 2: Control group: In Calorie Restriction group, subjects consumed 75% energy needs in each day for 8 weeks and includes 3 main meals and 2 snacks. All subjects in two groups were required to prepare all of their meals at home. The baseline energy requirements for the subjects were assessed by Mifflin equation. Daily dietary carbohydrate, fat and protein accounted for 52, 30 and 18% of ingested energy, respectively.</i_freetext>

    <primary_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Body weight and body composition analysis. Timepoint: Two times, before and after dietary intervention. Method of measurement: In light clothing, standing without shoes and hose on metal foot- plates while holding the handles of the bio-impedance analyzer (BIA; BC-418, Tanita Europe, Amsterdam, NL).</prim_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>BMI. Timepoint: Two times, before and after dietary intervention. Method of measurement: BMI was calculated as the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters (kg/m2).</prim_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Waist circumference. Timepoint: Two times, before and after dietary intervention. Method of measurement: Waist circumference was measured by a flexible tape to the nearest 0.1 cm, in standing subject at the midway between the lower costal margin of the last palpable rib and the top of the iliac crest during a period of expiration.</prim_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Triglyceride (TG). Timepoint: Two times, before and after dietary intervention. Method of measurement: Plasma TG concentration was measured glycerol phosphate oxidase/peroxidase method.</prim_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Total cholesterol. Timepoint: Two times, before and after dietary intervention. Method of measurement: Plasma total cholesterol was measured in duplicate using cholesterol oxidase/peroxidase.</prim_outcome>

      <prim_outcome>LDL cholesterol. Timepoint: Two times, before and after dietary intervention. Method of measurement: LDL-C concentration was calculated using the Friedwald equation (LDL= total cholesterol – TAG/ 2.18 – HDL).</prim_outcome>
