Interesting article.
You'll notice that when WW quotes success statistics for those who keep it off they only refer to those who completed the maintenance plan. They wouldn't want to mention the thousands who never got as far as maintenance, gave up, and had the weight they'd lost come roaring back, and then some.
Still, though I may have some differences with WW, I wouldn't blame them for my going back to my same old eating habits after I tried them. And to do them justice, they do try to teach people how to maintain their weight loss.
IMHO, this is all about sharky lawyers looking for another industry to attack and feed on.
