    It encouraged me to purchase more Special K, so I'd say it worked as intended.

    ^^^ this. It's a marketing scheme and nothing more. It's not a diet. If you ate twinkies instead, you'd lose the weight.
  • To me the meal plan was unrealistic because either it was not food I normally eat, or it wouldn't be stuff I could bring to work. So to me it was an epic fail.

    For me simply knowing how much to eat, logging what I eat and knowing I have people I am accountable to has made a world of difference. I'm already down 8 lbs. Every other time I've tried to diet it has never worked out.

    OF course you would lose weight on it (and yes, sometimes I just eat cereal myself). I don't think there is much protein in Special K (Unless you buy the new protein one), so that doesn't help with hunger throughout the day.
