Perhaps not the easiest, but I would say by far most effective way is by unlearning the toxic fatphobic misogynistic ideas we've all been socialised to have about "femininity" and the kinds of it we're meant to aspire to and idealise (and those we're not), and instead embracing and nurturing your curvy femboy self (and/or others).

Bro I'm no beanstalk but being fat is absolutely not healthy.

There is something to be said about the health benefits of being comfortable in your own body, but you also don't have to be ashamed of yourself to realize that there are genuine benefits to losing excess body fat. You only do yourself a disservice by buying the idea that being big is a healthy and worthwhile goal to aspire to. Generally being overweight is a condition of compounding factors that may well be outside of ones ability to control, and I guess the first step to being healthier is to acknowledge these facts.

Tbh the article you linked has one rather stupid take:

Even a quick glance at the weight research shows that, despite decades of trying, there is no evidence that efforts to prevent or reverse “obesity” are successful.

There haven't quite been any real efforts for decades, especially not in the USA. Banning ads for sweets and implementing a sugar tax should be very effective at reducing sugar intake, linked to obesity and those policies only started being implemented in recent years.

It's incredibly difficult to come by any research about those efforts because there's a multi-billion dollar lobby of advertisers and food manufacturers strongly opposed to this and any other policy attempting to reduce consumption.

And if it isn't curvy and literally all condensed into the stomach for some godforsaken reason?
