emeritrixWhat's the relation between weight and health?
Trick question: there isn't one.
"[H]ealth issues that get blamed on being higher-weight may actually be due to weight stigma and/or weight cycling and/or healthcare inequalities" or other "health issues might be impacting weight."
Ragen Chastain's Weight and Healthcare Substack is excellent. The posts are always informative, clear, thoughtful, short, valuable. If you are under the mistaken impression that weight correlates with health, you can begin to unlearn that prevalent misconception. If you already know that there's no relation between health and weight, you can still learn a lot about the details of GLP-1 antagonists and how they are prescribed, the bias that fat people encounter in health care settings, the actual research on weight and health. I really appreciate how consistently Chastain pursues these questions. Worth a follow, if you do the substack thing.

Thanks to Cathy Young for kindly answering my question and giving me permission to quote her answer.

ConscienHealthThe #AntiScience dimension of the #HAES movement doesn't hold up well as #obesity science advances. Pretending that obesity is not a real medical problem seems out of touch with present reality. Public interest in HAES is fading as a result.

Mad BI'm looking for a popular science article from a fat-friendly writer about the rise in #obesity and how diets are lies, which mentions how lab animals have also been increasing in weight since the 60s... I've lost track of the url
I'd like to send it along with this article to people who pride themselves on "doing their own research" so they can come to some brilliant conclusions all on their own

Toxic Gaslighting: How 3M Executives Convinced a Scientist the Forever Chemicals She Found in Human Blood Were Safe
Decades ago, Kris Hansen showed 3M that its PFAS chemicals were in people’s bodies. Her bosses halted her work. As the EPA now forces the removal of the chemicals from drinking water, she wrestles with the secrets that 3M kept from her and the world.
This week's clickbait from the @washingtonpost tells us that #AntiDiet messaging they've pushed from the #HAES movement is actually a #BigFood conspiracy supported by dietitians. This reporting is so absurd as to sound like satire.
