Interesting article but what really grinds my gears is the following: >My wife and I don’t normally eat breakfast (she has a cup of coffee and I drink a Coke Zero — yes, yes, I know it’s bad) If you go through such effort to do a heavy crash diet and your base diet is fundamentally flawed why do you not fix your base diet first? Getting a proper meal cycle in there for the rest of your life is far more beneficial than reaping the benefits of a crash diet. This especially bothers me when I hear people say "but I cannot loose weight!". Look at your base diet. Just freaking write on a piece of paper what you eat after you eat it for a week and you will be a lot more conciousness about it.
