Right....seems like there would have to be some kind of criminal abuse or
something. The guy was over 1,000 lbs, immobile and undernourished. What
were they giving him?

Maybe as a reaction to the 500 lb guy thread?

Ok, who can design a bicycle for a 1,000 lb guy?

If he was bedridden, who was feeding him this junk?

Even *I* would put him on Atkins. Heck, if he ate a normal,
balanced, 2000 cal/day diet, he'd lose weight.

Wow. Just... wow.

No kidding. If I read the article correctly, the guy lost an average
of 3.5 pounds per day for four months _before_ he got the surgery!
And he was still eating 1200 cal/day, an intake that would pass for
normal in many impoverished parts of the world. That makes me wonder
why he'd need surgery at all-- because the noninvasive option seemed
to be doing phenomenally well.

What makes this even weirder for me is that for him to have gotten
into that state, someone not only had to feed him cartloads of junk
food, but also had to carry off cartloads of his crap! That seems
like it would get really tiresome, really quickly. What could
possibly be the motivation to do that?

Google codependence. It's the thing that keeps millions of behavioral
addicts in their addiction.

They left out the part about his mind control powers.

.... and I thought this was going to be a story about what kind of bike a
half-ton man rides. I was hoping to hear some tips on avoiding chafing.

He was losing weight only because he was finally in a place where people were
not throwing him snickers bars and he could not get his own. However, I believe
that as soon as he lost enough weight to regain mobility he would be eating
again.

Only a guess follows.
You can't really lose 3.5 pounds a day for 4 months if these
pounds are "normal" pounds. Doesn't it take a calorie
reduction of over 3000 calories to cause a pound of weight
loss? So, I would guess he had severe fluid retention
issues and that most of that large weight loss was water.
That's the 'easy' weight loss, and this rate of decrease
probably could not be sustained much further.
