Here's an article I wrote that describes a few conditions that have very similar presentations (symptoms) as CF.

Some CF patients are pancreatic sufficient and have no problem gaining weight or keeping the weight on. Others may become overweight because of continuous steroid (prednisone) therapy. Don't let your doctor diagnose you based on symptoms alone. CF is a genetic disorder and must be diagnosed using the available genetic testing.

I am over weight but with my height I am only over weight by about 20lbs. My CF DR tells me I carry the weight good. I enjoy being over weight I feel like I fit in with the rest of todays world. No meaning to offened anyone. I just heard on GA that 75% of americans are over weight and happy to be in that percentage.
