Man Loses 27 Pounds Eating Twinkies and Doritos

Seems to me like Haub, as a nutritinalist, calculated what nutrients the body needed, found out how much there were in junk food, and simply ate the right amount of the right junk food to get his nutrients. If you just walk into a shop and buy rnadomly depending on what you fancy these amount will be skewed; you'll likely have too much fat and calories but not enough vitamins.
I know that kinda sounds like I'm putting him down, but I really do think this is cool. I await the first junk-food cookbook, there's no actual cooking involved it just tells you what combinations of foods won't make you fat.

He probably lost all that weight because he had mild pancreatitis the entire time. Just thinking about eathing almost exclusively twinkies and doritos with a side of Mountain Dew makes my stomach hurt.
Also, I'm guessing this guy doesn't do a whole lot of research, because the article referred twice to his experience as data. I don't really think this qualifies as "data". It's more like anecdotal evidence.

This doesn't prove that caloric intake is the most important factor in weight loss. It proves that caloric restriction works in weight loss, which is largely a moot point because there are few circumstances in which one can lose weight without operating at an effective caloric deficit.Zechnophobe said:

I'd be interested to see the effects this had on his physical health, but, as implied above, I don't find this surprising in the slightest.
I hate fruit, and I don't have Scurvy. I was thinking that Brushing my teeth kind of kept me from getting it.Alex The Rat said:
OT: Eating less makes you loose weight? No way! (/sarcasm) I could already tell you that. Well, at least a scientist is proving it.
It means nothing but that eating less food makes you skinny. He practically halfed the amount of food he hate, and that half remaining was fatty foods. If the remainder was healthy foods, he would have lost a lot more.
But I don't have scurvy. I have minor inflammation at the top left of my gums but that's it. Maybe it's something else I am eating?PhiMed said:
He dropped his caloric intake by 800 calories.
Calories are basically what contributes to weight loss and weight gain.
the guy was probably starving most of the time considering junk food is just empty calories with no real sustenance - that's why it's junk food.
He had protein shakes and vegetables to keep him feeling full.. he was probably miserable.

I know that, but I don't have spongy gums, spots on my legs, I'm not really pale, I am not partially immobalized, and I am not depressed either. I am thinking that Tomatoes, French Fries (Potatoes) and the occasional Lemon Juice (When I am extremely low on Blood Glucose) keep me Scurvy free.PhiMed said:
