But at the end of the day, eating less is the solution to the weight loss

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.
