    a salad diet? I assume by this you basically saying you didn't exercise and crash dieted? (under 1200 calories)? I'm cool w/ whatever works for people. any further thoughts/musings on how you did it and how the process went?

    Unfortunately from looking at his diary, he usually burns 1,000-1,500 calories a day and often eats less than 1,000 total. It's great that he lost weight but I don't k how how healthy and sustainable it is.

    yeah - most would say thats not the way to go. but you know what, I've read here a lot of people saying it worked for them. I did it once this way (crash diet). and it worked for me too. I think if you are careful with nutrients, I think this is ok short term. like losing 100 pounds quick for an very obese person (if you think about it - isn't that basically what happens when they staple your stomach?). BUT, it is hard hard hard. and when its over you need supreme control to make sure you don't yo-yo.

    Guys, take it easy. Weight lose is different for every person. What works for me may be difficult, unhealthy or just impossible for a another person. It all depends on your lifestyle, daily activity and how fit you feel. The most important thing is motivation. My journey just started with being twice a day at the gym. Always push your limits

    How did you deal with excess skin? It is well hidden in your after pics. Something I have been concerned about having lost a similar amount of weight

    While I am sorry to hear about the loss of your father, I am proud of how you took control of your life and health! Awesome transformation. You look so healthy and just radiate! I was a vegetarian for more than half my life and am assuming that is what you are doing? Well congrats!
