Eating an appropriate diet isn’t unhealthy, but I don’t think you are using the word “diet” in that sense. Weight loss drugs, like any other drug, should be prescribed carefully with great deliberation, after informing the patient and weighing with them the positives against the negatives. Like any other intervention it needn’t be inherently unhealthy, but I don’t think blanket usage of high dose GLP-1 receptor agonists is a good idea.
Accept your body as it is.
I disagree, we shouldn’t accept metabolically unhealthy states as normal.
And, again, we are using weight as a totally arbitrary marker for health with very little real evidence that it is in any way meaningful.
Waist circumference to height is a better marker.
There is so much bunk science in dietetics, it’s unbelievable.
It’s all epidemiology. That’s the unbelievable part of it, there’s no science in nutrition.
