Not a single person has said that except you. Including the quote I gave you above. Again, reading comprehension here.[/quote]

Then please explain what you believe "Type 2 diabetes is 100% a lifestyle ([b]obesity[/b]) related disease" means.[/quote]

It means that obesity leads to type 2 diabetes. Which is 100% controllable by a lifestyle choice. Unlike people who develop type II through other means, like genetics, age or inactivity due to long term disability.

Again, just like lung cancer can develop in someone who has never smoked - out of their control. Lung cancer from smoking - in their control.

BTW, I am not the person who originally posted the quote you gave, but I am the person who pointed out obesity leads to several healthy issues.[/quote]

Lung cancer is not 100% a lifestyle related disease -- given that there are people who get lung cancer who never smoked or were exposed to second-hand smoke.

And type II diabetes is not 100% an obesity related disease -- given that there are people who get type II diabetes who are not obese. (And there are also people who are obese and do not have type II diabetes, but that's a different issue.)[/quote]
