    *n=61 in rapid weight loss and n=43 in gradual weight loss group
Summary of findings

• Using rapid weight loss program (VLED):
  1.   More likely to achieve target weight loss
  2.   Less likely to drop out
  3.   No difference in weight regain

Why did we find a higher success rate with the stricter diet?
Results
•   Phase 1 median (IQR) Beta-hydroxybutyrate concentration at baseline, and 5%, 10% and 15% weight loss

      (n=19); At 10%: gradual weight loss (n=11), rapid weight loss (n=16); At 15%: gradual weight loss, 5%, 10% and 15% weight loss separated

Conclusion

The results are ..”consistent with the hypothesis that
human nervous tissue can metabolize ketones acutely.”

How should rapid weight loss be achieved
                safely?
To achieve rapid weight loss it is necessary to
 have a large gap between energy intake and
             energy expenditure.

However to obtain the necessary micronutrients
 it is necessary to have and intake of at least
              4920 kj (1200) kcal.
VLED
•Provide only 1640 – 3280 kj (400-800 kcal/day
•Very low in fat and carbohydrate
•Supply all the needed vitamins,
 minerals and amino acids.
VLED
•1 sachet or bar twice daily (breakfast and lunch) with
plenty of water
• In the evening have a no carbohydrate dinner with
protein vegetables and a salad
•Oil on vegetables and or salad if gall bladder is
present
•Daily exercise

and adiposity in obese subjects with type 2 diabetes or normal
fasting glucose over a 24-week intervention

Tips for using VLED’s in patients with Diabetes

1. If the patient with diabetes is on glucose lowering drugs
   that can cause hypoglycemia (insulin or sulphonylureas)
   it is essential to tell the patient to reduce the dose in half
   and to monitor glucose closely the first few days. The
   doses of these agents are then manipulated to maintain
   glucose control.
2. Check c-peptide before starting so that you may be able
   to asses whether stopping insulin is a possibility
   following substantial weight loss.

What strategies should we adopt to help
 our patients to maintain weight loss
              long term?
Lifestyle advice

• Healthy eating
• Regular Exercise
• Weigh yourself once weekly in the morning with an empty
    bladder
•   If you regain 2 kg, restart the intense diet and continue it
    until you have lost the 2 kg again.
Weight Loss Agents :

-   Saxenda (Liraglutide 3.0 mg)
-   Phentermine (Duromine)
-   [Topiramate (Topamax)]

[ ] off label use
Weight Loss Agents :
Major Points about Weight loss medications:
• Nature combines nine gut and pancreatic hormones and several
  nutrients to suppress hunger so, it is better to use multiple drugs
  at their lowest doses to control hunger after weight loss rather
  than just one drug at a high dose.
• Because weight is predominantly genetic, the hormonal and
  energy expenditure changes that occur after weight loss,
  designed to return the weight to its set point, are long lasting. It
  follows that drug use has to be long term (life-long).
