Has anyone tried the procedure of the MATADOR study?

My own weight loss has been somewhat slower than expected given my calorie deficit. So far I’m finishing up the first cycle on Monday but I’ll really find out if it’s working as intended in two weeks.

Quick recap to those who don’t want to read: study found that eating at large calorie deficits (33% of TDEE) for two weeks and maintenance for two weeks not only significantly outperforms lower constant deficits (20%) in terms of weight loss, body composition, and measured energy expenditure (they used a breathalyzer), but more importantly (probably because of the higher energy expenditure) resulted in much better outcomes in terms of keeping weight off. It’s a top quality experiment published in Nature.
