Although I think this does work, most of it might be mental. Also, of COURSE eating less/no sugar and saturated fat is gonna lead to weight loss. Also, lemon, in my opinion makes me feel fuller cuz of the strong taste.

There's a story of a doctor that would give his patients pills and say, take two of these pills once a day, then walk for 30 minutes. The patients' blood pressure would drop, cholesterol would go down, and yeah, they'd lose weight.
The "pills" were jellybeans.
This "diet" works fine without the lemon for the same reasons.

Lemon juice is a great way to use less salt also. besides it really tastes good on most vegies, specially cooked ones. I think this would work fine.. and some of us need all the help we can get.
