I feel that good points for

I feel that good points for obesity are better found by looking at it in a more comprehensive way.  First, sticking to treating the persons overall diagnostic pattern and not a pseudo-symptom of obesity.  And that coupled with trying to understand the causal factors from both a Chinese side (the dx pattern) and from a western side (emotional issues, thyroid problems, hormonal issues, poor lifestyle, etc.).  Trying to reduce something as complicated as weight issues to a simple point protocol will not lead to very good results in my opinion.
