    Participants in a National Institutes of Health (US) study spent two weeks eating ultraprocessed foods- stuff out of bags, boxes and cans - then another two weeks consuming unprocessed natural foods. On the first part, they gained about 1 pound a week. On the second part, they lost about a pound a week.
    This was in an article in AARP Magazine.

    Here's a thread discussing the study that I think you are referring to. It was an interesting discussion if you'd like to read it or join in.
