I don't think anybody is arguing the "high percentage" of people who -can- do something about it and don't, but what we are arguing here is the idea that that's "all there is" and that there are no other contributing factors to obesity in some people.

Also many doctors don't prescribe when they should.. if you're at a 3-4 on the scale... and your weight is going up.. a doctor should ignore the normal levels.. and put you on at least 125..
That's why it's important to have a doctor who knows their shit.. my reproductive endo has been a godsent... and he understands that the lifestyle needed for a PCOS'er WITH thyroid problems is way different than a typical chick just dieting..
