Why do humans have the capacity to be overweight in the first place?
The most effective way is to simply strictly (water) fast until you reach your desired weight.
[You don't even have to be that strict and can drink some <10kcal drinks like coffee, tea etc.
Watch out for electrolytes, vitamins, EAA and probiotics (gut biome)][0]
But most people in the modern world want "another" ("easier", "high-tech" etc.) way. Some magic exercise, pill, protocol, weird thing ... indulging in the myriad choices.
Why? Because habit-forming for adults is frikkin' hard. For some the best benefit-cost ratio is Bariatric surgery with all its nasty side-effects.
As with other addictions (loosely defined here) the optimal way (most of the time =/ effective way) is quite personal one has to account for the history, motivation, etc.
So for some an O2-tank might be the right trigger.
That's why - at the end of the spectrum - I'm even all for homeopathy if it facilitates a powerful placebo effect to change one's habit. It has by definition no side effects (except of course for nocebo).
