"Loving Yourself" and Obesity

This one may anger some and is not "politically correct" but read through it before you get upset:
I recently saw an interview with a current obese movie star. She was saying how she had been on multiple diets since she was 21 (she is now 26) and never was able to lose the weight. She realized that she has to love herself and who she is. (I also feel that being too thin isn't healthy- I had a runway model who was 6' tall and 135 pounds. Her body fat was 29%- Too FAT!) This is totally fine with me. What I have issue with is that it implies that she is going to accept being obese and not continue to do those things that might help her lose weight or, at least, keep her in some healthy condition.
Please, if you are obese, DO NOT STOP EXERCISING and eating properly. I want you to love who you are but that has nothing to do with accepting that you are obese!!! You should do whatever you can to be as healthy as you can. If you have followed this blog you know that one of the main "long term goals" you should set for exercise is that you "make exercise a regular part of your life for the rest of your life" and not that you lose weight! If you base your life this way you will get yourself into the best level of fitness that your body can be regardless of your weight. Your exercise can keep you internally healthy even if you don't lose the weight.
An article that I read says that "Greatest Loser" competitors are being prevented from speaking out against some of the "loss" tactics employed by the show. One former contestant who lost 130 pounds and has since gained them back is being kept from speaking out.
Please keep in mind that a UCLA study showed that "People on diets typically lose 5 to 10 percent of their starting weight in the first six months, the researchers found. However, at least one-third to two-thirds of people on diets regain more weight than they lost within four or five years, and the true number may well be significantly higher, they said."
Weight loss should be gradual and not rapid (unless there are life threatening conditions). This allows for your body to adjust to its new metabolism and size. This link says it all:

In conclusion, you SHOULD love yourself and who you are but you should also try to get yourself into your best physical health possible. Exercise regularly (there is a form of exercise for everybody!), eat right and do what you can to maintain your health. You can always improve your health!
