Being overweight is a risk factor for developing this disease, but other risk factors such as family history, ethnicity, and age also play a role.

Unfortunately, too many people disregard the other risk factors for diabetes and think that weight is the only risk factor for type 2 diabetes. Most overweight people never develop type 2 diabetes, and many people with type 2 diabetes are at a normal weight or only moderately overweight.
