HEALTHY TIP:
Don't be afraid to eat meat, just choose lean cuts of beef and pork, and lean poultry such as turkey, and make sure to have a large side serving of vegetables!

Amazing...

Here are more pictures of his progress (including loose skin): http://www.hemmy.net/2007/07/02/david-smit...ight-lost-story

I came across his story ages ago but was reminded of it today when I saw this: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=390964. The guy in the pic is David Smith, not Salvatore Ferranti, and I don't know why they would use David's before pic there. It's a horrible thing to do and it's misleading.
