That is an interesting tidbit on the carb - water thing.

I was just reading up on this, as some had claimed success on this diet. However, with all diets it seems they would 'rebound' at some point. Where they start tappering off the diet and then gaining again, unless...... you up your activity level and balance out your lifestyle to maintain.

Ultimately, moderation and lifestyle change, is what leads to the long term success.
