Can we talk obesity and steroids? [View all]

I might be placed on steroids in the near future, and I'm dreading the possibility of additional weight gain. It seems to be very accepted that steroid use can/will cause weight gain. So why, when the obesity crisis comes up for discussion, do we hear about fast foods and couch potatoes, and nothing about all the hormone mimics in our environment?
