You can be fit and still be fat though. I've been working out with a personal trainer for a couple of years now and I'm significantly healthier and stronger than I was before I started but I haven't lost the gut (yet).

If HAES is just an excuse to not try and be fit, it is going to kill people.

Some people will use it for that. Others won't.

I don't see what else the "movement" would be used for. If you are obese than you are unhealthy. It might be hard to be hard to maybe impossible to improve that but it doesn't suddenly become "healthy" because of that.
