It's been shown that in obese people, as opposed to yo-yo dieters, fast initial weight loss is actually a predictor of success, which makes sense. If you shave 250 calories a day off a 4000-calorie-per-day diet, that's really not good enough. If an obeast actually cut the crap and started on a 1,200 or 1,500-calorie-per-day diet and stuck with it, they'd lose 50-100 pounds so fast. Less than a pound a week in someone this fat is so lazy. Saggy skin is going to be a reality anyway, so what's the point in prolonging the process other than not having any will to actually put in real work?
