Purpose: To determine whether two kilogram body weight loss could improve whole body insulin sensitivity through exercise training and dietary control in non-obesity adults. Methods: Fifteen women subjects were recruited to complete weight loss project with exercise training and dietary control. All blood samples were collected for analysis in glucose, insulin, insulin sensitivity index and triglycerides before and after experiment period, respectively. Results: The insulin levels were shown significant decrease in two kilogram weight loss compared to prior to weight project (7.45 ± 0.65 mU/ l and 6.57 ± 0.47 mU/l, p < .05). Insulin sensitivity was significantly improved after finishing weight loss project (7.86 ± 0.29 and 8.40 ± 0.25, p < .05). Conclusions: Dietary control with exercise training simultaneous is a good method for weight loss in non-obese adults. Weight loss up to 3.58% of the original weight could significantly improve whole body insulin sensitivity.
