Of course, but that wasn't the context. 'marknutter' said that she should try and lose weight. You replied to that that for all we know, she's tried everything. 'marknutter' did not criticize her for not curing herself out of the disorder.
marknutter should a. Not be so concerned about her weight, and b. reread the article where the author assures us that her PCOS is under control.
Her doctor says she is ok, and she states that she is reasonably careful with her diet and does a large amount of exercise, which - because of the endocrine disorder she suffers from - does very little to change her weight.
In some of the comments here I wonder if I've been reading the same article! She makes it clear why her body shape is what it is, she says she's pretty healthy and looks after herself, gets checkups from her doctor and lives a full life. She seems pretty much at terms with her body shape... why are there so many comments telling her she needs to lose weight?
I'm not a doctor, so I can't argue about the medical aspects. Even if I was a doctor, I couldn't rely on what someone wrote on a blog that their doctor told them (we even have no way of knowing if it's true). And even if it is, this does not prove that "she's tried everything" (in terms of diet) within the limits imposed by her unfortunate disorder. I am not saying that she hasn't, but given that she thinks her body is just fine - in the visible aspect - I have a good reason to find this unlikely. Having said that, I do not hate her (or any obese people for that matter), and I'm not personally concerned in the slightest whether she loses weight or not :)
