Yes!
As a fat woman (and not that fat, but "we are using eugenics system to judge you" fat) I had my share of doctors just ignoring any of my issues just to spew about weight loss. Like even if my weight is affecting my health they were just doing nothing. On one fun occasion doctor just decided for themselves that I need to get thin and prescribed me medicine that basically make you shit non stop. Yeh, sure.
Next health solution is to make babies, also fun one.

Doesn't mean that it's not necessary to lose weight in a lot of cases.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, it does. There are actually very few cases where it's necessary to lose weight.

[(Anonymous)]

Incorrect. Just about every surgery is much more risky for a fat person, just to name one common instance.

And there are risks associated just with being born AFAB, doesn't mean it's necessary to not be. It's more risky to your lungs to live in cities, just to name one common instance.

There are very few instances where it's necessary to lose wight, because most medical issues are not caused by and not solved by weight.

Just about every surgery is also more risky for a thin person, interestingly. Surgery generally is actually substantially riskier for underweight people than obese people. And yet doctors very rarely tell a patient they need to gain weight before they have surgery. Interesting.

+1000 Studies have shown when it comes to health it's best to be somewhat "overweight" followed by "normal" weight followed by obese followed by skinny. Yet no one tells skinny people to eat more and exercise less. It's almost like it's entirely based on looks and not health. Curious.

[(Anonymous)]

That is factually wrong - people with an 'overweight' BMI actually do better after surgeries than 'normal' weight people, and for 'obese' people it's still better than 'underweight' people.

[(Anonymous)]

Uh, no. When I went to my doctor because I was having a health problem, he told me that I needed to lose some weight or else I risked it becoming a) much more severe, and b) permanent.

And guess what? The problem has completely gone away now that I've lost weight.

Congrats on being the 1 in 10000000? I have a friend who also has an issue that can only be solved by losing weight. Doesn't mean I can't read the statistics, which show the vast majority of issues fat people have isn't the fat.

Was that issue, perhaps, pre-diabetes? Because that's usually the one that people say that about. Prediabetes for one is not particularly well linked to actually developing diabetes; there's not great evidence that having slightly elevated blood sugar increases your risk of developing the full-on disorder later, but due to a PR campaign it got well-established among doctors anyway. And second, getting better exercise and improving your diet will drop your blood sugar whether you lose weight or not (and calorie restriction will also change your blood sugar, if you went with that rather than actually better diet) I have a good friend who is extremely overweight and her 'pre-diabetes' went away when she started eating better due to unrelated life changes, without dropping a pound.

A lot of other conditions that are 'solved' by weight loss are similar to this, too.
