Are "you're not bad for having this problem" and "you should improve this problem" fundamentally incompatible??

that feels like a softened version of B) like you would clearly be disappointed if they chose no, but you would still be their friend or whatever. but the subtle pressure of anti-A) is there.
I don't think there's any implied disappointment here! It's providing someone with information and respecting their autonomy over how to use that information.

hmm maybe it really depends on your relationship to them. i still think there's a level of "if i were you i would not be fat" in there.

I don't think that's disappointment? If I were you, I'd be me, but you're you and that's your choice because you are a person and I respect your autonomy in being a different person than me.

I do think there are some examples where there is a stronger moral component though. e.g. consent negotiation during sex. Nobody is good at this to start with, and so being bad at it is not a moral failing, but continuing to be bad at it after having lots of sex is.
