After ~30 days, will Hurley remain heavy?
Go ahead. Turn this into an Atkins advert.
We will lurve Kat, anyway.

Any other "four years" references so far?

Now tagless for your comfort.
Jack, you're trapped in an alpha male body. Deal, buddy.
Damn, I like Locke. I also dig Hurley. Shannon's the only one I want to vote off the island.

I'd say so. Larger people tend to have lower metabolisms, so he may lose less weight per day than people with a much smaller share of extra padding.
Several of the heaviest Survivor contestants could still be described as heavy after even an almost 40 day stint on the show.
ETA: Context, and: while many of the skinnier contestants turned positively skeletal.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Weight loss X-postyness.
Still? It did take two or three weeks for it to start rolling off. I lost over 100 pounds in six-seven months without trying hard. Lost even more at the 1 year mark.
Sadly, I'd gained it all back in the ten years since I had surgury*. Losing it again is a much harder process.
ETA: * No, not weight-related.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
For Deena:
I'm an ordinary man, Jack. Meat and potatoes. I live in the real world. Not a big believer in...magic. But this place, it's different, it's special. The others don't want to talk about it because it scares them. But we all know it, we all feel it. Is your white rabbit a hallucination? Probably. But what if everything that's happened here happened for a reason? What if this person you're chasing is really here?
And:
But I've looked into the eye of this island, and what I saw...was beautiful.
