Patrick Deuel obesity case
Thursday, January 06, 2005
Patrick Deuel has lost near 400 pounds since June after checking in at 1,072. Patrick Deuel, 42, is recovering from obesity surgery to reduce the size of his stomach. He, just under 6 feet tall, is on a 1,200 calorie-a-day diet and exercises each day lifting dumbbells, walking and stretching. He wants to lose at least another 450 pounds or more in the next year and a half to two years. He is being supervised by a team of eight doctors.
He had been bed-ridden for months and has been obese all his life. His aim is to take a walk outside with his wife by Valentine's Day.
I think the problem is not loosing all that body-fat, but how anyone can put so much fat on his body-frame? A healthy living style (Including exercise and proper diet) is a must nowadays.
