To determine the effect of Modified Intermittent Fasting on Appetite, Food Craving and Eating Behavior of adult obese and/or overweight women aged 18 to 50 years old
Design
A randomized, controlled clinical trial has been designed with two parallel groups of 56 patients. Individuals are selected by convenient sampling. Then, they are assigned to control (daily calorie restriction diet) and intervention (fasting diet) groups by simple randomization method and using a table of random numbers. Because there is diet intervention, blinding and the trial phase are not applicable.
Settings and conduct
56 obese or overweight women will be selected by convenient sampling based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study from Kashan health centers. Individuals are randomly assigned to one of the two groups of control and intervention.

The control group: After calculating the daily energy requirement of a person, 63% of the total energy requirement is provided each day and follows this diet for 8 weeks.

Randomization description
Subjects are selected by a convenient sampling method. Then, participants are divided into control and intervention groups by simple randomization and using the table of random numbers. The randomization method is that at the beginning, it is agreed to give the intervention group the odd number and the control group the even number. Therefore, participants are assigned to the control or intervention group depending on whether we reach the odd or even number in the table of random numbers.

Then, alternately, one day 25% of the energy and the next day 100% of the required energy is provided. On fasting days, one can get 25% of the daily calories needed from 12 noon to 2 pm.
