This study will systematically quantify the effects of protein pacing and intermittent fasting (P-IF) on total and regional (abdominal) body composition (lean mass and fat mass), blood glucose and lipids, and anti-aging biomarkers, hunger ratings, and the gut microbiome in 40 overweight/obese adult men (n=20) and women (n=20) following a 8-week weight loss intervention. Participants will be enrolled in the study as a single cohort and participate in a 8-week weight loss (WL) trial consisting of a single dietary intervention phase. The purpose of the additional 12 month follow up case study (in addition to the initial 12-month case study period) is to scientifically document a significant weight loss and improved body composition following combined protein pacing intermittent fasting nutrition and a safe, effective exercise program in a study participant who achieved successful weight loss maintenance during the previous 12 month follow up study period.
