    No. Just using a calorie deficit.

    I did a search and no one has mentioned it in months. I am on the plan and would like to start a group. I just need to know someone is actually interested

    Good luck!

    I'd never heard of this until now.

    It is a medical supervised very low calorie, low carb diet. I have lost 21 lbs in the first 5 weeks.

    Just an FYI - even though it's MD supervised, MFP doesn't like VLCD's. So you may want to check the terms of service before starting a group.

    I never joined one of those programs, but I know people have lost weight with Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, etc.

    Just bear in mind that when the diet ends, you have to eat right and exercise.

    At some point, you have to learn how to eat a normal amount of food without assistance, just by listening to your body.

    Good luck.

    True, I started not to post anything. I just have always found great support here.

    Sounds really unpleasant, expensive and unnecessary to me.
