I agree with you skb.  The article does not say a word about the quality of food ingested by the study participants, nor did I see anything refer to exercise or movement.  They did not mention how to monitor insulin if you might be insulin dependent, and most people know that insulin is a fat storing hormone.  Why they offer weight loss drugs is beyond me instead of altering eating habits to begin with.
