WL6 does two major things. First is the OE, which basically says, "Hey, figure out why you have this issue, and then figure out the best solution and do that."
The second thing it does, as I said, is basically tries to shoot at every major factor. It's been a while since I worked with the script, but here is what I remember.
It approaches a change in perspective such that you shift away from a negative view of losing weight. It aims to optimize your caloric intake to be exactly what it needs to be for you to lose 2-3 pounds of fat a week. It motivates you to view yourself as you really are, and then respond to that as is necessary to actually achieve your ideal weight, instead of deluding yourself and giving up when you face the facts. It motivates activity to burn calories at the right rate, and aims that activity at things you enjoy doing, so you don't have resistance to "exercise". It also tries to re-frame "exercise" in a positive way. It works to disconnect emotional eating (boredom, fear, anxiety, upset, stress eating). It seeks to de-stress you. It works to motivate you to want to make the necessary changes and achieve the goal, not just in the now, but in the long term. It works to disconnect guilt, shame and fear and heal you emotionally to help prevent stress and release reasons for overeating. It also works to reset your "normal" body image to where you want to be, instead of where you are now. There's more, but I don't remember it.
"Dieting" basically is a short term effort to lose weight. Typically the "diet" is unhealthy and causes weight loss for negative reasons, and the moment the person achieves even a fraction of weight loss toward their goal they become complacent and give up. Then they gain the weight back, and start all over again. This is what "dieting" is in the United States. It's like a get rich quick scheme that people keep falling for because they want to believe in it so badly.
The key is to clear out the emotional issues and adjust the mind, emotions and body to set the ideal weight as the normal. Then make your normal lifestyle become what automatically results in that weight. That's what the program is trying to do, although it does not work for everyone yet.
