		<description><![CDATA[Ah, CNN Science Reporting.  It&#039;s like listening to politicians talk about economics. 

Let&#039;s see, he&#039;s 5&#039;10&quot; and was just over 200 lbs; now is 175 or so. He reports losing about 3 lbs/week after dropping out about 5600 calories each week. He also added a multivitamin. (Which one(s)?)

From the &quot;two thirds&quot; convenience store diet, I guess he ate dinner at home with kids to set (not set?) an example. Did he really have &quot;a can of beans&quot; or 3 stalks of celery for dinner for two months? &quot;Two thirds&quot; of 1800 calories in vegetables is a &lt;em&gt;lot&lt;/em&gt; of vegetables. That&#039;s a great dietary practice. 

But, it&#039;s hard to tell what he did from the CNN article. The information is tantalizing, but since I can&#039;t get to his social page from here, I can&#039;t really dig into details. We don&#039;t know how he ate before. Did he go from &quot;eating out of boxes&quot; at home (pizza, Mac &#039;n&#039; Cheese, Regresso Soup, cereal, etc.) to eating less but still &quot;out of boxes&quot; at 7/11?

Consuming a pound and a half of calories &lt;em&gt;less&lt;/em&gt; each week, &lt;em&gt;plus&lt;/em&gt; restricting dinner to a &quot;can of beans&quot;, having 600+ vegetables nightly, and adding a multivitamin can make an enormous, cleansing difference. 

More questions than answers in this one. 

Folks might really enjoy the &lt;cite&gt;Fat Head&lt;/cite&gt; movie along these lines. I plan to order it and enjoy. Nice antidote to &lt;cite&gt;Super Size Me&lt;/cite&gt;.]]></description>
