Effects of two differing meal patterns (six versus three per day) on weight loss, nitrogen retention, and serum lipids were studied in two groups (four each) of overweight young women for 60 days. Diets contained 1,700 kcal, (115 g protein and 50 g fat) during the first 30 days and 1,400 kcal (106 g protein and 40 g fat) during the remaining time. Weight losses ranged from 0 to 9 lb during the first 30 days, from 4 to 10 lb during the second 30 days. Nitrogen retention was considered satisfactory in both periods, for all subjects. Total serum lipids and serum cholesterol values varied considerably among subjects but were within normal limits. Meal frequency did not significantly affect weight loss, nitrogen balance, total serum lipids, or serum cholesterol.
