I assume you haven't read the book? It makes some pretty crazy claims that "COULD" happen, but aren't likely. Like loosing 100lbs in like 3 months (it "could" happen, but it isn't typical) or gaining like 50lbs of muscle in 3 months, etc. The book outlines how he did it - what it doesn't go into too much is the fact that he had that muscle, then lost it, then gained it back. So the argument is that his muscle was just rebuilding itself and that is easier. The point is not to take everything literally - if you follow his slow-carb diets & exercise even slightly you SHOULD loose weight - you probably wont lose 100 lbs, but you could. Most people healthily lose 1-2 lbs per week and with this you could certainly do that. I'm 6"5 & 300 and I lost about 20 lbs in the first two weeks doing it, although that is fairly consistent on any real extreme change I do for eating healthy. You'd understand when you read it that it isn't a step by step to get from point a to point b, but rather information to help motivate/guide you from your own point a to your own point b... in a sensationalized manner. (don't get me wrong, I liked both books)
