    There are barriers to weight loss and weight management. Many metabolic conditions prevent the body from burning its own fat stores. Delving into how insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome work in the obese body helps bring more understanding to the issue. With that being said, it’s still our responsibility to manage our weight by any healthy means necessary because obesity is objectively a driver of many bad health conditions that you really don’t want to experience first hand.

    If a person is obese and type 2 diabetic or has other metabolic syndrome symptoms, often the best course of action is to use intermittent fasting with a ketogenic diet focused around whole foods to correct weight. It also ameliorates fatty liver disease which is often concurrent with obesity. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7132133/) (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9919384/)

    Overnutrition is extremely, extremely easy to do. Food cravings can destroy a diet in a second, but what I’ve come to find out is that when you stick to keto and IF, the food cravings disappear. I guess all of this makes me fatphobic and ignorant of “medical science” because I support healthy weight management. I’m really not sure what the actual argument is here. It was more of a statement. But anyway, being obese is not wrong, it’s just not healthy. It will make the person very sick and immobile as the years go by.
