Recommendations
As issued by the authors
Emphasis on optimizing health rather than just weight reduction and achieving clinical goals other than a singular focus on BMI (complication-centric care)
Choice of interventions and intensity of treatment should be individualized, taking disease severity or stage into account
Equality of care and reducing weight bias and stigma through a biopsychosocial chronic care model are critical
