Background: Weight loss is typically associated with reductions in resting energy expenditure (REE), which may limit the extent of weight loss after sleeve gastrectomy (SG), the most common metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) in youth. REE may be impacted by changes in body composition and gut peptides following SG. Current data regarding changes in measured REE (mREE) and metabolic adaptations in adolescents after MBS are limited. Objectives: To evaluate changes in mREE, estimated REE (eREE), metabolic adaptation (difference in mREE – eREE), body composition, and gut peptides in youth after SG compared to non-surgical controls (NS) over two years. Methods: Youth 14-22 years old undergoing SG (n=24) and NS controls with severe obesity (n=28) were enrolled in this study. mREE was determined by indirect calorimetry. The Mifflin equation was used to calculate eREE. To account for effects of changes in FFM and total body weight (TBW), we evaluated mREE/FFM, mREE/TBW, eREE/FFM, and eREE/TBW. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to measure body composition. Fasting plasma levels of ghrelin, peptide YY (PYY), glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), and insulin were measured. All measurements were performed at baseline and two years later. Results: Mean age and sex did not differ across groups. Body mass index (BMI) at baseline trended higher in SG vs. NS [43.60 (39.81, 49.39) vs. 41.60 (37.83, 48.21) kg/m2, (p=0.051)]. Mean change in BMI was higher in SG than NS (–11.5 ± 1.21 vs. 1.47 ± 0.58 kg/m2, p
