I meant to mention obesity in my fibromyalgia/obesity post.  Pardon my brain
fart.

I see obesity as both a cause and a symptom.  Hyperinsulinemic?  You'll
eventually become obese on the SAD.  But once you become obese, it brings
with it problems of its own and makes you insulin problem that much worse.
Six of one, a half dozen of the other.  Call it a vicious cycle.
