I think blankall is right here.

Put it this way, most normal males burn 2500 as a 'basic' BMR rate. Depending on your job, that number with go up. I'm assuming Killer works in an office environment, so chances are unless he moves around a lot, he doesn't burn more than 2700-3000 calories per day. He'd basically have to stop eating, plus burn 500 more calories per day through exercise, in order to lose 1lb per day. I'd say that is impossible.

The only way you could do it would be to dehydrate yourself....but like I've said before, people have died as a result of dropping too much water.
