The CDC labels Obesity as a disease. Obesity use to be just a risk factor for a disease, but it is NOW considered a disease. It's not that I'm discriminating, but Obesity itself has proven health consequences, and I'm not blaming the person who is obese, and it does not matter how they got there, but there are specific health problems for Obesity that are very straightforward and consistent with this disease.
However, it is important to consider the measurement used for assessing if a person is obese, BMI may indicate someone is obese when they are in fact just muscular. Obesity can't be healthy if it is CORRECTLY diagnosed.

'Bad' is a moral judgement. Obesity is unhealthy, not evil

Being obeses increases risk of heart problems, and it limits the physical activities you can do.

Some people are obese by heredity functions and also by genes.

Many obese people have trouble losing weight in this case, and some still continue to eat healthily and are in good health. Obese people can be healthy if they eat right.

 Healthy in some ways yes, but there are specific health consequences seen in Obese people that are directly caused by the Obese persons Obesity that are consistent with all obese people, this is why the CDC labels it as a disease.

Your debate and your explanation are at odds.

Being obese is very dangerous for health reasons.

It is bad for the health of a person?

Is it curable? Yes that is good.;-))
