a clip from USA TODAY:

New York, NY, February 10, 2004—Today's Wall Street Journal ran a story on the health of Dr. Robert Atkins and grossly distorted and inaccurately reported information that Dr. Atkins was obese at the time of his death. In fact, up until the time he became comatose and lay in the hospital for two weeks. Dr. Atkins' average weight was actually 60 pounds less than reported in the Journal. The newspaper article was based on incomplete personal medical records that were illegally delivered to the newspaper in violation of federal law, coming from a known group of Vegan and animal rights extremists.

Thanks NDHuntress....I already feel I can make it back to my goal. I thought that was untrue about Dr. Atkins. I guess I like to hear positive about something I am accomplishing instead of all the negative, I would always tell sceptics I will die being unhealthy and overweight, may as well be the weight I want to be and enjoy life.
