Honestly, sounds like hype created by some dieticians who were worried because they are losing income because there is better information and support available on the internet than is available with them!
I don't know about you guys, but going to a WW meeting or even a check in with Jenny Craig never kept me on the straight & narrow. I actually remember lying to a counsellor at a Weight Loss Clinic (anyone remember those places) once when I was in high school about how much I ate because I was embarrassed at overeating. Shortly thereafter, I quit.
Here, I can be honest, it's not a scary atmosphere and no authority figure is going to give me hell if I make a mistake or don't do things her way. So it's easier to stay honest here than with a in person support person.
