I need help on finding a statistic...please help me.

I remember coming across a statistic stating that with traditional weight loss attempts and regular excercise only result in an average weight loss of 30% of excess weight. It also stated that 95% of those who lose this weight will gain it back and then some. Can someone tell me where I can find it again?? I've been searching everywhere and can't find it. I want to include this with my appeal letter that I plan on sending off this weekend. I would really appreciate it, Thanks!!!
