      No they’re telling you to exercise because it’s necessary to maintain cardiovascular and muscular health as well as playing a role in endocrine regulation. Because it’s critical to a healthy lifestyle and it’s difficult to do.

      The point of my comment was that there are elements of heath that are vital and associated with weight loss that are better separated from it because if you think of exercise as a “weight loss thing” instead of a “important element of a healthy lifestyle no matter your weight” you will be less healthy

      The plus side is exercise does help regulate the endocrine system which can help you lose weight

        Yet the doctor is fat, they explicitly say the exercise is for weight loss, the knowledge hasn’t helped them.
