Love how they just prescribe weight loss when like. My back pain is actively preventing that lol. It hurts to stand let alone exercise consistently.

They blame everything on weight. They blame it on being “overweight” and don’t look into anything else (even if it is a healthy weight for you). Then if you lose too much weight, or are naturally thinner, they blame it on being underweight.
