No actual number. He says this on his page with URL <http://www.heartmdphd.com/wtloss.asp> "In 1997, my wife and I watched an IMAX film about climbing Mt. Everest and learned that despite their exhausting regimen, the climbers consumed only 10 lbs of food per week. That's less than 2 lbs. of food per day! Since none of the climbers died from starvation, I think it is safe to assume that 2 lbs. per day should be more than adequate for us non-climbing folks. "So I started a little experiment with the agreeable obese patients in my care. I gave them ordinary food scales with instructions to weigh everything substantial that passed into their mouths. The only things exempted were water and sugar-free drinks. What I learned was that my obese patients was consuming between 8 to 12 lbs. of food per day! At the time, I was about 10 lbs. over my ideal body weight (ok, it was more like 20 lbs) so I decided to find out how much I was eating per day... 3-4 lbs. I cut back to less than 2 lbs. and was at my proper weight in a few months." >> so 100% of those that started 2PD 5 years ago (that is many more=20 >> than 1) are successful, But never an actual number. No data to support that "many more than 1"=20 claim. > Correct. >=20 >> so there is 0% failure rate and 100% cure. Except Chung never mentions how many there are actually doing it that he knows of. It also implies that *everyone* who started it has stayed=20 with it. All are still alive. All are still in contact with Chung. All puffery and claims; no documentation, data or testimonials to=20 support any of it. Lies followed by more lies. Bob |
