Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants will be randomised to one of 2 diets for 10 weeks. The diets will be:
1) a control diet based on best practices for nutritional counselling and the New Zealand dietary guidelines and food pyramid


Participants will be required to maintain their baseline weight for the first 4 weeks. From week 5 participants will be counselled to eat as much as required to feel satisfied while adhering to their dietary regime.

Participants will meet with a study researcher on a weekly basis for 20 minute nutritional counselling sessions and to be weighed.

Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Sealed opaque envelopes containing treatment assignation will be prepared by a research assitant who is not involved in the study in any other way and allocation to participants in sequential order.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Individuals will be randomised to treatment groups stratified by age and BMI. Strata will be randomised in random sized blocks using the randomisation commands in Microsoft Excel.
Masking / blinding
