The Cancer Diet
Steve Jobs, CEO of both Apple and Pixar, recently underwent surgery for pancreatic cancer.
Steve, who is a vegan, had been working on a mild middle-aged paunch over the past couple years - and he looked notably slimmer when presenting this year's WWDC Keynote. It was mentioned more than a couple times during the conference, with most folks making note of how many times Steve had to hitch up his jeans. The general commentary had been along the lines of "good for him" that he'd lost some weight, with some obligatory joking that it would be hard for a vegan to do the trendy Atkins diet.
Well, looks like that weight loss was for an entirely different reason. Yoiks.
