It is true that many published diets, especially those of the crash variety, result in rapid, temporary weight loss. We emphasize the word temporary. Few people can tolerate for long the boredom of foods eaten on such programs and, if they could, serious damage to their health from nutritional deficiency might result. Even a return to previous eating habits, after being on such diets, will often bring the weight right back to the original point or higher.
Our program addresses the structures of eating and habits as well as medical factors of obesity.
