    Final line of the article says it all:

    "Ultimately this shows a diet must be realistic to be adopted as part of a new lifestyle. Curbing cravings is better than deprivation for
    weight loss success, said Prof Jakubowicz."

    It's not something magic about chocolate cake, it's about making lifestyle changes that you can maintain forever.

    It reminds me of Bill Cosby.

    What's wrong with chocolate cake for breakfast? There's Eggs and Milk it in, the basis of a good breakfast.

    QFT.

    I want to report the article for porn. That pic of chocolate cake at the top is giving me impure thoughts.

    Being as I don't like breakfast, or chocolate cake, I think I'll pass on this one and carry on regardless!

    From the article:
    Researchers split 193 clinically obese, non-diabetic adults into two groups who consumed either a low-carb diet that included a 300-calorie breakfast or a balanced 600-calorie breakfast that included a chocolate cake dessert.

    In this case, how could one logically surmise that it is the carbs from the cake, and not simply the extra calories that made the difference? The results may have been the same if they'd consumed 300 more calories of fat or protien.
