If you want to lose weight and keep it off, you need to eat a well balanced healthy diet with lots of exercise. It's a complete life style change. If you go back to the way you used to eat, you will gain the weight back. You can have some of the things you used to eat but as occasional treats. I have given up my burgers for a healthier choice. I make portabello burgers instead. I use sandwich thins in place of regular buns. You can sub a lot of things for a healthier version.

Diets aren't forever.  They're to lose weight on.  This is a fad diet, not a permanent solution to what you should be eating for optimal health.  What you need to do if you like the weight you're at is slowly transition to a diet more in keeping with what's healthiest regarding necessary antioxidants, meaning lots of vegetables, whole grains, and whatever amount of animal suits your system.  Carbs don't make people fat, simple carbs and the wrong kind of fat and a sedentary lifestyle do.
