I get that, I really do. Mental health is a really really important part of being healthy.

But at the end of the day, eating less is the solution to the weight loss. Mental healthcare is the solution to mental health problems. They're interconnected, but one can be solved independent of the other. And I do realize that it's difficult.

Ok but also doing something very difficult at the best of times is particularly difficult while also struggling with mental health issues. And beyond that even if you succeed you’re not unlikely to swing hard the other way. People with serious mental health issues that manage to lose a lot of weight have a nasty habit of doing so using an eating disorder.

And abstinence is the solution to unwanted pregnancies and STDs. The solution to alcoholism and all other drug addictions? Stop taking drugs/drinking.

Did I just provide medical advice? Or did I just make it clear that I don't know anything about sex education and drug addictions? I think it's the latter, and I think you're making similar arguments wrt fat people.

You're flattening the realities of life, and needlessly stigmatizing and moralizing eating . for every fat person you save with this gospel, there's many more anorexic people absorbing the same message.
