Ensemble averaging has not worked well for me when it comes to dieting. I’m at a point where I’ve found what works well for me: high protein Mediterranean eat when I’m hungry. I tried skipping breakfast and wound up being skinny-fat. I tried keto and got fat and muscular. You might fit cleanly into a bin, like me, you might not.
- ryannevius 7y agoWhat is "skinny-fat"? Is it an issue of uncontrolled weight fluctuations?
- jddj 7y agoTypically it's more like thin but with poor muscle definition. Not overweight but not fit. But assuming the gp was exercising with weights etc, they might mean that they felt they weren't overweight but were carrying excess fat in certain areas, or considered themselves bloated.
- sethammons 7y agoThinner and softer; noodle arms. You can be thin or lean, but skinny-fat is marked by soft muscle.
- neogodless 7y agoI believe it's using "fat" as a catch-all term for an unhealthy body composition. You appear skinny but lack muscle. I don't think you necessarily have to have "hidden" excess fat to be called this term.
- lostapathy 7y agoIt means your BMI is “normal”, but it’s normal because you lack muscle to offset having more fat than ideal.
