[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The level of denial in this thread is astounding.    People are really arguing that obesity is not linked to health problems?[/quote]

People are not arguing that here.

They are arguing that most efforts to lose weight, especially when accompanied by shaming, tend to backfire. Therefore -- and this is the point you are missing -- you should stop doing counterproductive things and try to find methods that are actually productive. [/quote]
I’m not advocating for shaming at all.    Stop projecting[/quote]

Not that pp, but I am curious to know exactly what you’re advocating because it isn’t clear to me. You think that fat people don’t realize they are fat and need that to be pointed out to them?[/quote]

No I’m saying that there are people who take the HAES movement/body positivity movement and convince themselves that being obese is healthy.   It’s not.  It’s one thing to promote self-esteem/loving yourself /treating others with respect.    It’s another to say being fat is not detrimental to your health.[/quote]
