1) The article has nothing to do with obesity
2) Obesity IS linked to diabetes. T2 Diabetes CAUSES obesity!

Not necessarily.
They may be in the minority, but there are T2's who never were & don't
become obese or even overweight.
(I'm not one of them. And maybe if I hadn't been so lazy & inattentive in
the years before diagnosis, I wouldn't have been either overweight or
diabetic. At least not yet.)
