I said that his current frail look is an indication he is not healthy, but that this alone can't give you a diagnosis of what is wrong. In ability to gain wewight when you are visibly underweight is not a good sign. But that is the only conclusion one can draw and you can't infer any type of disease. And to be fair, one would need to know ehether he has a strong apetite (and east like a pig) or whether he is never hungry and just east a little bit. But his lack of weight is a cause for concern.

Yeah, but his frail look is not exactly new. > In ability to gain wewight when you are visibly underweight is not a > good sign.

I think with all the diseases he's already got there's no need to assume a new one. > And to be fair, one would need to know ehether he has a strong apetite > (and east like a pig) or whether he is never hungry and just east a > little bit. > > But his lack of weight is a cause for concern. It's summer here right now and it's hot and the girls are wearing very little. There are quite a few among them who make me think the same thing.

It invogrates me with youthful reminiscences of junior high, when the children had just learned those words and thought it so impressive to use them a lot. When you haven't yet hit puberty, talking has to substitute for doing. A few of the kids kept talking that way as they got older, mostly those that were such loosers that they couldn't get any for real. -- Richard Maine | Good judgment comes from experience; email: last name at domain . net | experience comes from bad judgment. domain: summertriangle | -- Mark Twain

My mother lost about 80 pounds in one year as a result of taking an arthritis medicine called Ultram. Before taking this medicine. she had a health appetite. in Fact she wore 20W in Large women's clothes. as a result of the taste which was ruined with this medicine she survived on soda Cracks and Coca Cola each day because it was only thing that tasted good. She went to Doctors even had a Light stuck down in to stomach. from throat on down was blood red. after Doctors couldn't figure out what was going on she quit the Ultram. within a month she got her taste back. Sher stomach has shrunk to point just two spoons full of something will fill her up. her ideal weight should be for her size and bone structure, about 150 pounds. she currently weighs around 110 pounds and goes between a size 12-10 in clothes size. She eats a bowl of ice cream every night and drinks ensure. at least once a day. She suffers with Back Pain as a result of being knocked down by elevator door in a Hospital. but other wise is healthy. Yet looks like skeleton walking around. I am constantly (which I hate doing) harassing her to eat. So we don't know what the state of Mr Jobs internal plumbing is maybe he has gotten like my mother and can't eat because his stomach is shrunk and he just can't. -- Phillip M. Jones, C.E.T.

Yeah, according to that Wikipedia article there's only part of his stomach left (this is part of the procedure that was done on him). And he will also have a totally changed metabolism (his liver transplant was necessary because he could not metabolize proteins anymore).
