So, while the results of the study are promising for some patients, more work needs to be done to ensure weight loss is maintained post-plan.

There's a great podcast called Maintenance Phase that's all about the diet industry's bullshit. They chose the title because once a dieter stops doing a diet, they return to the weight they were before (~80% of dieters according to this metaanalysis ). The diet is the maintenance phase. You can never stop.

This diet is a low calorie diet that keeps intake under 1000 calories. That's not healthy for the long term. This diet, like all diets, is crap.
