Let's see now. 'Several' doctors stated that a patient on life support can easily gain 20 to 30 pounds in a week. Atkins was on life support for two weeks. 30 plus 30 equals 60. They really should start requiring grade school arithmetic in medical schools, or should I say journalism schools.
If only these people (PETA/PCRM) would put their energies towards pushing for sustainable agriculture, with animals treated humanely and having decent lives, and thus producing much healthier meats for all of us. But no. These fanatics have to demand that we all become vegans. Can't even wear leather shoes or wool clothing. What a waste. And they defame other vegetarians and folks who are truly working for the 'ethical treatment of animals'. What a crying shame.
(Oh, and BTW, I have heard several news reports stating that Atkins was weighed when he was brought to the hospital and his weight was 195.)
