How Long Can I Stay On Plan?
Very low-calorie phases such as Total Focus and Sprint (VLCD) are designed for structured, time-bound use.
They are not intended for indefinite continuous use without appropriate breaks.
Thatās why Reset is built into your journey.
Structure protects sustainability.
š Timeframes By Plan
š¢ Total Focus
Total Focus is typically followed for:
š Up to 8 consecutive weeks
After 8 weeks, you move into a Reset (Refeed) phase.
Total Focus should not exceed:
š 12 consecutive weeks without GP approval
Because this is a fully structured Total Food Replacement phase, clear time boundaries are important.
š” Sprint (VLCD)
Sprint is designed as a shorter, focused phase.
Typically followed for:
š 4ā6 weeks
After 4ā6 weeks, you complete a Reset (Refeed) phase.
Sprint should not exceed:
š 12 consecutive weeks without GP approval
Sprint is momentum-driven ā not long-term maintenance.
š The Typical Structure
Your journey will usually follow this rhythm:
Focus Phase ā Reset ā Focus Phase ā Transition
This structure:

Reduces fatigue
Supports muscle retention
Helps manage appetite
