Found a study that says most people gain back more weight than they lost

I was reading a research paper from the University of California last week, and it said over 80% of people who lose a lot of weight gain it back, plus more, within five years. I found this after my own cabbage soup diet failed and I looked up why. It made me realize the problem might be the diet itself, not just my willpower. Has anyone else seen this and found a better way to keep weight off for good?

Guess we're all just renting the weight, not buying it lmao.

Saw that stat on a morning show last year. My whole office goes on these quick diets every January. By March, everyone's back to normal, just more frustrated.

Ugh, my friend did keto and rebounded hard.
