I have a cousin which went from being morbidly obese for several decades now, to a mere 165 pounds in a number of short years. His weight loss wasn't dramatic, it wasn't chemically induced with slimming capsules, and he sure did not follow any of the many diet program out there. He never did Atkins, or Jennycraig or Slimfast, or maybe any that low thing, although he did achieve the fat loss goal of his. His, was an organic weight reduction that was consistent and sustained.
