By bmi standards I am "overweight".
But whether or not I look over weight would probably be a matter of opinion.

Is "overweight" the same as fat?
Idk, it's also another opinion.

Why BMI is inaccurate and misleading
Why BMI is inaccurate and misleading
Body Mass Index (BMI) is not a very accurate measurement for determining whether somebody is of normal weight, overweight or obese, researchers say.

I have been fat "most" of my life. It's the result of living a life of plenty, and making bad habits into lifestyle. Now there's definitely a difference in living food-privileged and living a life of plenty. I grew up with "eat all you want" and "eat, you'll feel better." This from depression era adults. But what was eaten had much to do with it. Every meal came with biscuits, gravy, molasses, jelly, spoon bead, bread-pudding, etc. Depression "cheap and filling" and plenty of it. To this day one of my favorite meals is biscuits and pot liquor or pot liquor with dumplings. So of course, I'm fat. But I work hard to stay under the "obese" line. . .with age it's harder and harder to do.
Yeah I was going to post a photo of myself shirtless and ask if I was fat, but I figured no one wanted to see me in my towel
Nice!!
Yes i do...

I've seen a picture of you before and you didn't look fat in it, unless it was an old picture?
Probably not an old picture no.
So that's why you have strawberry tart so often!Lucky you.
I just don't put weight on and trust me, i eat plenty. Having said that i have put on 4lb since moving to France (almost 9 years ago)
