Guys a six pack is not a reflection of a healthy body, just low body fat percentage which does't necessarily mean healthy. As to the Prophet's (peace be upon him) dietary advice, I think we have to look deeper into it rather than think of it as a kind of advice on losing weight or being healthy. It is to tame the nafs.

not only low body fat percentage, but there are quite other positives on it, like breathing better and moving better, these are the reason why i do much stomach exercises and it helps alhamdulillah. A few other steps to go and i will join a MA school insha'Allah. a six pack doesnt mean you are healthy, true but it is still for someone who does alot of sport activities. We get also asked if we have a healthy body ;) six pack isnt only because of low fat percentage thats a bit nonsense. it also determines if you exercise your stomach muscles well.

however i think we should end this subject since there are sisters here.

It's true that visible abs isn't only due to low body fat percentage, it is also due to training the core but one can still train the core without prioritising visible abs. Different people store fat differently in their bodies so some might need to be in a lower body fat percentage than others in order to have visible abs. It is for this reason that I would say if one's goal is to be healthy then visible abs is not the best gauge for it. And MashaAllah bro I hope you learn a lot in MA school.
