Manuel Uribe is going for his second world record, his first title --the world's heaviest living man. Well now he wants to lose the most weight in the least amount of time.


 


At his heaviest, Manuel Uribe weighed 1,235 pounds and was in the Guinness Book of World Records. In two years though he's shed some 530 pounds. Uribe says he is losing the weight through the Zone diet, a diet based on eating calories from carbohydrates 1, protein and certain fat percentages. Uribe still can not move his swollen 2 legs and must ride in a special trailer that can support his weight. He wants to slim down for his wedding to his Claudia Solis. When he tried to attend her birthday party last March, the flatbed tow 3 truck got caught under an underpass 4. Uribe says his goal is to weigh 285 pounds by 2010, meaning he would have lost a record 950 pounds.
