Why is there a brigade of women who consider weight loss for grossly overweight people a bad thing? I see posts like “my doctor asked me to lose weight for better outcomes” replied with “better change the doctor “. How is this good advice? It’s not like the doctor asked the poster to become anorexic. Also, there are “you are beautiful as you are” posts where people are clearly seeking help for their health

How is trying to improve your health parameters a bad thing? Why are people hell bent on discrediting years of research?

PS - i am obese myself and working my ass off to get healthier (added in case anyone assumes i am shaming overweight people)
