Sadly that "healthy obesity" or HAES (Healthy At Every Size) people are very much against this or any kind of weight loss. It kind of undermines their whole movement.

I want to point out, I disagree with the HAES people, you are not healthy at every size.. you're going to have some people who are more healthy than others regardless of some amount of weight... But not obesity, not that size.

I'll note: HAES, at least initially, was about living a healthier lifestyle regardless of weight, especially recognising that without this latest batch of weight loss drugs, sustainable weight loss is incredibly difficult, and that weight loss in general can have some paradoxical effects such as increased appetite and lowered BMR.
