Spoiler: the doctor can tell with their own eyes that you're a whale without knowing the precise number on the scale.

So you goal is to bring as much weight with you as possible?

How does declining to be weighed improve healthcare? Don’t doctors need your exact weight for dosing medicine? In addition, can’t you just turn around on the scale and not have them say the number? Why is a whole video needed about how to avoid being weighed?

They have the impression that being weighed means the doctor will immediately prescribe weight loss as a treatment to whatever ailment they initially came to the doctor for, whether it is a sore throat, a joint issue or a rash. It put the responsibility on the fat to lose weight without any immediate solution to the issue they have now that is causing them pain. I mean, it's not as if the doctor can't see that you're a huge fatass just by looking at you and prescribe you weight loss regardless, but I think when the doctor realises that the patient declines to be weighed because 'muh HAES', he/she just throws expensive drugs at the fatty just to shut them up.

I guess doctors should also refrain from advising alcoholics to stop drinking, drug addicts to stop snorting coke, and smokers to give up cigarettes? I agree. How dare a health professional suggest ways for patients to live a better and longer life? Feelings might be hurt.

Hopefully hurt enough that these creatures off themselves and save the rest of us the eye-sore and tax dollars.

I love that these pigs think that by declining to be weighed, they're "forcing doctors to actually treat their issue," or "standing up for themselves." Really, piggies, all you're really doing is telling your doctor, "I am as whiny, wimpy, and oversensitive as I am fat, and I am going to be an incredibly difficult pain in the ass every time you see me or try to talk to me about the obvious cause of my joint pain/back pain/urinary problems."
Yes, what a win for you!
Your doctor knows you're fat. Not being weighed isn't going to stop them from recommending weight loss, ffs.

And I would assume that by being such an unbearable pain in the ass that whichever poor doctor has to deal with you is going to give as little of a shit as they are allowed to about you to be rid of you quicker.

If one does not wish healthcare why would one go to a healthcare provider?
Rhetorical question I know. They don’t want to become healthy they just want a handicapped hang tag so they can park next to the door at Dairy Queen.
