Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to test whether food intake in response to large portion sizes differs between women who have received portion-control training and women who have not received such training. In a crossover design, women come to the laboratory on four occasions to eat a lunch of seven foods varying in energy density. Across meals, all foods are varied in portion size (100%, 125%, 150%, or 175% of baseline amounts). Food and energy intake is determined for each meal. Participants are from two groups: women who completed a one-year weight-loss trial in which they were trained in portion-control strategies, and women who had not received such training (community controls).
