Brief Summary:
To investigate whether the daily glucose profiles as assessed by continuous glucose monitoring for 1 week of normal weight and obese individuals relate to hunger levels and food intake.
Detailed Description:
To evaluate the effect of blood glucose levels on eating behavior in a population of patients with diabetes in a free-living environment; the investigators plan to study lean healthy control subjects (BMI \<25 kg/m2) and obese non-diabetic subjects (BMI \> 30 kg/m2).
The participants who qualify will be invited to use the CGMS (DEXCOM G4 Platinum) for up to 7 days. On the visit for placement of the CGMS: 1) the participants will be explained by one of the study physicians how to use a glucometer (FreeStyle or Accu-Check), 2) they will have the CGMS inserted under the skin, and 3) they will be instructed how to fill up the food log (informational brochures are available at the end of the protocol. On the second visit (up to 7 days after the initial visit) the CGMS will be removed from the skin and the glucose meter and food log will be returned to the investigators.
When this study was initially designed, it incorporated 2 additional arms in the study: T1DM and obese T2DM patients. These patients were never recruited for the study.
