Today, they are facing the opposite problem. Many who have <SPAN id="lw_1191533782_0" class="yshortcuts">HIV</SPAN>, but not <SPAN id="lw_1191533782_1" class="yshortcuts">full-blown AIDS</SPAN>, are struggling with obesity, which has overtaken "wasting syndrome" as the top concern. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071004/ap_on_he_me/diet_aids_and_obesity"><P>AIDS researchers and advocacy groups say the waistlines of <SPAN id="lw_1191533782_2" class="yshortcuts">HIV patients</SPAN> are growing right along with the girths of uninfected Americans as the disease shifts from a death sentence to a chronic condition.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071004/ap_on_he_me/diet_aids_and_obesity"><P>Exact numbers are hard to pin down. But new research suggests that nearly two-thirds of the <SPAN id="lw_1191533782_3" class="yshortcuts">HIV population</SPAN> may be overweight or obese, mirroring the U.S. population.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071004/ap_on_he_me/diet_aids_and_obesity">A turning point in the AIDS crisis came with advances in modern medicine.
