I used to live next to a rehab center here in Norway. They used to take in a lot of traffic accident victims, but had recently started taking in obese people.
Their focus was on making permanent changes to their day to day routine. Reintroduce the home cooked meal with plenty of vegetables and little fat. Getting away from the processed foods and especially sugar contents. I remember on an open presentation I attended that they explained how a packet of cookies contained as much energy as an entire dinner, and if you ate it quick enough almost all of it would simply go to fat storage because you couldn't possibly use all that energy fast enough unless you were running the entire time.
They said the key to weight loss is not to focus on the weight loss but rather on permanent changes to your diet and lifestyle. Make vegetables, salads and fiber the norm, not the exception. But this usually requires managing the rest of your life better. All it takes is a tough week at work for you to go back to frozen pizza and soda, and never turn back.
