Man loses 600lb on low carb diet- 300lb to go
Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
he said, 'Don't count calories.'

Male 6 ft 3in 60 years old. Married 28 years.
Began Atkins March 04 at 260lb, reduced to 203lb by April 07 and maintained.
Blood Pressure Mar 04 147/94 . Jun 04 121/74 . Dec 04 119/72 . Jan 06 126/71 . Dec 07 110/70
Atkins makes exercise mandatory - I took up cycling - see last pics at 203lb.

Actually it doesn't say he's doing Atkins, and if he is he could be a the other fruits rung by now. I actually had half a grapefruit and whole grain toast with peanut butter for b'fast yesterday! no fish soup though ..blech!Jen, 39, F

Thats awesome of him! I shudder to think what would have happened if he tried a low fat diet - that poor man's blood sugar... *shudder*
I looked up a couple other links mentioning him and it appears he is on the Zone diet:

Pretty amazing. He's going to need a serious tummy tuck and then some when he's done.
