Doctor Felitti was a specialist in preventative medicine back in the 1980s. His specialty was helping patients lose weight. Doctor Felitti invented a specialized liquid diet with great success. This liquid diet was so successful that some patients were able to lose up to 300 pounds in one year. That's remarkable even by today's standard. It was what Doctor Felitti noticed with some of his patience that changed the course of his medical career. He noticed that some of his patience’s that had great success in losing hundreds of pounds would just quit the program and then go on to gain all that weight back.
