The investigators will test the hypothesis that a LOW CARB hypocaloric diet will reduce body weight over six months more than a LOW FAT hypocaloric diet. In addition to body weight, the investigators will measure cardiovascular and metabolic variables and will take blood samples in order to determine whether certain metabolites may predict the diet success.
