- Abstract
This document is a response to a letter to the editor regarding a publication in Military Medicine titled "Partnerships to Facilitate Total Force Fitness (TFF)." The authors of the response appreciate the comments made by LCDR McCarter and LCDR Wylam, who emphasized the importance of identifying obesity as a medical condition and involving healthcare providers in addressing it. The authors agree with the suggestion that the doctor-patient interaction is an ideal setting for promoting healthy behaviors and highlight the need for more nutrition education for medical students. They also propose partnerships with organizations that offer lifestyle medicine modules to bridge this gap and support patients in achieving and maintaining healthy lifestyle goals.
