I've never heard of this diet, but I'm always suspicious of "gimmicks" that cost a lot of money. But, they may work for others. My husband weighed 295 pounds at about 6 feet with a very high BMI. A year and a half ago he decided it was time to change his lifestyle. We couldn't afford the costs of the weight loss clinics, so we did it our way. He bought a WII active and did the workouts religiously. He never missed a scheduled workout, even when he had to miss something important. He also changed his diet. If we ate out, he ordered responsibly and ate half of what was on his plate. At home he cut back to eating half of what he previously ate. I helped him learn how to read labels to count the carbs and sugar content of items. He likes to eat yogurt, so I found a yogurt that has 4g carb instead of the 27g in other brands. It's the little things that add up, and it's not quick and it's not easy. He lost 100 pounds in a year and has maintained that weight loss since then. He now has the ego to match, but you know... He started off ordering a book that he saw a guy talking about on Nightline. Reading that got him started. If you are interested I'll ask him about him.
