Everyone who did this for 6 months managed to lose between 8-10% of their body fat. The study did not specify what kind of exercise or intensity level the participants who were able to maintain the weight loss did. Researchers only stated that the participants who kept the weight off expended on average 1,835 calories a week, or 275 minutes per week.
