Where cynicism is very close to truth...

There are no known effective weight loss programs (if "effective"
means that the weight is not regained within a few months or years).

The best thing you can do for overweight (presuming that it isn't
life-threatening) is to ignore it and go on with your life.  Too many
overweight people go through life unhappy and frustrated, trying to lose
weight the whole time and only "yo-yoing".  For right now it is an
unwinnable war; better to focus your attention and energy on something
that you enjoy.
