I'm about 80 pounds lighter now and have been on that diet for years anyway. I have reason to believe that the majority of that weight loss was diabetic induced because it was so easy to lose the weight. But it would be nice to get down to my college weight of 185 lbs (I was rail thin then).

But the point of the Warrior Diet is not just to lose weight but also to improve the endocrine system. Perhaps the daily fasting stimulates the endocrine system. And the composition of the diet increases the level of testosterone:

Note I added more to my other reply after you upvoted it.
