With the help of doctors and nutritionists, he’s lost the pounds following a high protein diet.

Wow, props to that guy! That’s incredible. I couldn’t imagine having to lose over 1000 lbs…I think I’d lose motivation at some point. I think it’s pretty awesome that he’s doing it without surgery or anything. I hope they keep following his story…I’d be interested in seeing his progress.
