Well, I am somewhat overweight. I carry it well. work hard and am currently working out and doing something about it. I absolutely do not believe obesity is a disease. Neither do I believe depression (for the most part) is a disease, but is a result of self-absorption. I don't believe alcoholism is a disease, but a choice. But with there being a psychological diagnosis for every self-control issue, this Pandora's box is now open and not likely to ever close. 100 years ago, there wasn't all of this psycho bull, but now that you can sit home, drink beer and draw a check for being depressed, I guess obesity is fair game as well.
