80 lb weight loss


I maintained my weight loss 
from 11/2006 till Dec 2007
with 1500 calorie diet and 2 hour day exercise

In Dec 2007 I found it impossible to get below 200 pounds with 1500 calorie diet and 2 hours exercise a day.  

I decided I needed to eat more and build up muscle to build up metabolism.  I had not formulated the Sponge Syndrome yet.

      In 1996 I published the The Fen Fen diet pill program 
       I was 272 pounds with a 49 inch waist Oct. 1995
            I could bench press 340 pounds free weight.
I lost 50 pounds in 3 months on Fastin and Pondimin. 
220 lbs waist 42 inches in 1996.

My first big weight loss was in 1988.  
I went from 245 pounds to 208 pounds. 
I attended Overeaters Anonymous Meetings.
I went to Nautilus weights 3 times a week and jogged daily while on 1,000 calories.  I stayed at this weight for a few months but the deprivation was too much and I quickly went up to 220 pounds.
