Interesting study, good work by authors, I read it as little to no effect though. Confidence interval includes 0.14 kg of difference in weight loss. But I couldn’t read the full paper to show how they tested compliance between the groups.<p>For me, fasting (skipping breakfast or breakfast and lunch) and eating more vegetables (to feel full) are the easiest ways to hit calorie targets, but I suspect that is the only effect.<p>So the practical takeaway of this, and all diets, is focusing on what is the most sustainable way to hit calorie targets.
