ABSTRACT
Previous evidence confirms a relationship between the timing of food intake and weight loss. We aimed to evaluate the effect of late v. early evening meal (EEM) consumption on weight loss and cardiometabolic risk factors in women during a weight loss programme. Eighty-two healthy women (BMI 27-35 kg/m2; age 18-45 years) were randomly assigned to two groups EEM group (eating at 19.00-19.30 hours) or late evening meal (LEM) group (eating at 22.30-23.00 hours), for 12 weeks. Compared with the LEM group, the EEM group had a greater mean reduction in weight (EEM -6·74 (sd 1·92) kg; LEM -4·81 (sd 2·22) kg; P < 0·001), BMI (EEM -2·60 (sd 0·71) kg/m2; LEM -1·87 (sd 0·85) kg/m2; P < 0·001), waist circumference (EEM -8 (sd 3·25) cm; LEM -6 (sd 3·05) cm, P = 0·007), total cholesterol (EEM -0·51 (sd 0·19) mmol/l, LEM -0·43 (sd 0·19) mmol/l, P = 0·038), TAG (EEM -0·28 (sd 0·10) mmol/l, LEM -0·19 (sd 0·10) mmol/l, P < 0·001) and homoeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (EEM -0·83 (sd 0·37); LEM -0·55 (sd 0·28), P < 0·001) after 12 weeks. In conclusion, eating an earlier evening meal resulted in favourable changes in weight loss and plasma cardiometabolic risk markers during a weight loss programme.
