Lightheadedness?
Isn't it rather likely he'd suffer withdrawal symptoms due to his body being accustomed to a lot of high fat/sugar content pre-prison

No, he'd just feel hungry and unused to not having masses of sugar in him. Unless he's diabetic (likely) it'd just be a combination of hunger and that fact that he is morbidly obese. It's not really withdrawal (though if you really want to frame it that way you can argue it).
But yes, lightheadedness is a lay term.

Yes, there will be a period of adjustment while his body gets weaned off processed junk and becomes used to eating proper food, but it'll soon pass. I'm sure he'll be in perfect health when they execute him!

What this really comes down to is one fat man trying to sue the government because they made him healthier. Yes, only in America.

Like Morgan Spurlock when he went on the all McDonald's Diet, only in reverse--it damn near killed him, too.
If anyone ever wondered why American's are so morbidly obese, start with that film--then add a good dose of high fructose corn syrup (farmer's won't even feed their pigs that shit, yet we gobble it down like gravy).

Not to disagree with the overall thrust of the conversation but that's actually debatable. Those liver problem indicators (whose names elude me) began to drop at the end of the experiment as his body began to adapt to his new diet. I wouldn't be surprised if, had he continued, many things about his life "improved" after the shock of such a fundamental dietary change passed and he could continue a tolerable existance as an ever increasing fat bastard for a while before serious problems came back. Not to recommend the lifestyle or anything but we are pretty adaptable things. That's how people end up so huge.
Anyway, The real issue here is feeding the media idiocracy by bothering with "Whahoah Peculiar!" stories that they pass off as newsworthy.

Sounds like he needs more carbs and protein and shouldn't be tossin' so many salads.
