Abstract
The above article, published online on 1 October 2009 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), and in volume 18, pp. 1143-1145, has been retracted by agreement between the authors, the journal Editors-in-Chief, Eric Ravussin and Donna Ryan, the Obesity Society and Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Although there is no implication that the data collection was carried out unethically, the retraction has been agreed to because the subsequent data analysis was conducted without the required approval of the university ethics board while the published paper incorrectly stated that Norwegian ethical approval had been obtained.
