Greatest Weight Loss (Male)

After following a strict diet plan, Jon Brower Minnoch (USA), who weighed 635 kg (100 st) and was therefore the world's heaviest man, reduced to 216 kg (34 st) by July 1979, thus indicating a weight loss of at least 419 kg (66 st) in 16 months. This averages at 22.05 kg (3 st 9 lbs or 57.75 lbs) a month!

The diet consisted of just 1,200 calories a day. Sadly, though, by October 1981, the former taxi driver had put on over 89 kg (34 st), undoing all his good work. When he died on September 10, 1983, he weighed more than 362 kg (57 st).
