Is this diet long term?

    This diet is not meant to be long term. It's a short term solution to have rapid weight loss.

    No, it is short term because it is a diet that is nutritionally unbalanced in order to create an environment conducive to losing fat. There are days built in for "refeeding" and optional days for breaks. Some people do a cycle of say, six weeks and then take a break.

    There are online calculators that will tell you how much protein you should consume, your calorie max, etc.
