I think with some of these diets, the 'initial goal' is to get their patients down into their healthy weight first and foremost. Once they get there, they you tweak their diet and exercise to maintain.
In the end, a diet I do not think can get you the distance. I think they are simply to give you some short term results so that it helps you mentally, and reinforces you stay on that path. Ultimately, it's a lifestyle change, where you accept the changes you need to make for better eating, controlling calories, exercise, etc..
