Have you tried everything to lose weight? Are you sick of fad diets that just don’t work? Well now there’s something new! And when that doesn’t work, just wait a few seconds, some other new thing will come along.

In a new spot by Toronto’s Giants & Gentlemen, for Dr. Bernstein Diet & Health Clinics, what seems like every weight-loss trick from the last 30 years floats past, each just as ineffective as the last. The clinic emphasizes the fact that its programs are medically supervised, so you don’t have to worry about it winding up in the same place all those other methods have (i.e. in a sad, gently vibrating pile on the floor).
