==Effectiveness== In a 2009 study involving 300 overweight and obese males and females aged 21β60 years published by Cambridge University Press, the SlimFast programme achieved weight losses of between 5 kg (11 lbs) and 9 kg (19 lbs) after six months compared to a control diet. The results were comparable to that of both the Weight Watchers 'Pure Points' programme and Rosemary Conley's 'Eat yourself Slim' Diet and Fitness Plan.<ref>{{cite journal | doi=10.1017/S1368980008003236 | title=Comparison of the effects of four commercially available weight-loss programmes on lipid-based cardiovascular risk factors | date=2009 | last1=Morgan | first1=LM | last2=Griffin | first2=BA | last3=Millward | first3=DJ | last4=Delooy | first4=A. | last5=Fox | first5=KR | last6=Baic | first6=S. | last7=Bonham | first7=MP | last8=Wallace | first8=JMW | last9=MacDonald | first9=I. | last10=Taylor | first10=MA | last11=Truby | first11=H. | journal=Public Health Nutrition | volume=12 | issue=6 | pages=799β807 | pmid=18647427 | s2cid=2256339 | doi-access=free }}</ref>
