Then I know personally people who through Weight Watchers or even Dr. Joel Fuhrman's plant based system that have used only diet to make the transformations.

He might not have made it clear that weight loss can occur in the short term on almost any plan. The 3 to 5% success rate is in long term weight loss. Where were those people 5 years later?
A message board isn't a good way to get an idea of how many people are successful. If you failed at the method, you're probably more likely to blame yourself and just fade away.
Most studies on weight loss methods only go to 18 months or if you're lucky, two years. After that period, 95% of people gain the weight back, sometimes plus more.
