• While he may have a generic, unassuming name, his weight loss in just over a year is just about the most incredible story I have heard from anyone regarding shedding pounds in my entire life!
• Smith once weighed 647 pounds when he was addicted to food and had to give up his career as a professional cook in 1985 because his weight problem got to be too much for his health.
• He, like so many of us who are now livin' la vida low-carb, could not eat enough food to satisfy our appetites.
• Flippant comments about going on a diet and being a disgrace for a human being can wear on you.
• But it goes without saying theye didn't work for him either.
• And his health was getting worse, as you can imagine, with high blood pressure and diabetes overtaking his body and bringing him to the brink of an early grave.
• Smith knew he needed to do something that would work this time and turned to the Atkins lifestyle to do it.
• Interestingly, it was one of Smith's children who said he needed to try Atkins in April 2004.
• So, after failing on every other weight loss program, he started the low-carb lifestyle.
• The results have been so amazing for Smith that his doctor was flabbergasted, stating he had never heard of anyone losing 300 pounds without any surgery.
• She noted that the 300 pounds Smith lost is the most she had ever heard anyone ever losing on the Atkins approach.
• The next step for Smith is skin removal surgery known as an abdominoplasty because he has excessive layers of overlapping skin that need to be taken care of.
• John Smith is a living, breathing example of what livin' la vida low-carb can do for people who need to lose weight and restore their health.
