Researchers come out with all kinds of theories, and then they prove each other wrong. How many times do you hear the phrase, "researchers once believed..." There may be a big correlation between fat and heart disease, but not necessarily a causation. But whatever causes one may cause the other. Example: eating a lot of fats can make you fat and give you heart disease. But being fat is not the cause of heart disease. Or, more likely being sedentary can cause obesity and heart disease.

If you don't want to be outside of a feedee relatonship, you need to be honest with every woman you date. The women should know that any relationship with you would require her to gain weight. And even then, there is no guarantee that she can or will keep the weight on and adding more.

I personally cannot watch those kinds of shows. I hate hearing people how miserable they are being fat, and I hate to see people lose weight. (until they regain more.)
