1. Shasa … the diet plan for more than two weeks when finally recognizing it didn't work.

The correct answer is "had been trying". This is because the sentence is in the past perfect continuous tense, indicating an action that started in the past and continued up until a specific point in the past. The phrase "for more than two weeks" indicates the duration of the action, and "when finally recognizing it didn't work" suggests that the action had been ongoing before the realization occurred. Therefore, "had been trying" is the appropriate verb form to use in this context.
