Obesity - My Body My Way http://www.mybodymyway.com/2010/02/skinny-fat/ http://www.mybodymyway.com/2010/02/skinny-fat/#comments Wed, 03 Feb 2010 17:58:11 +0000 Kristine http://www.mybodymyway.com/?p=1045 Wow, I’ve been saying it for years and was glad to see the recent Today Show segment on “skinny fat”. Being thin is not an indicator of health. I love the two women that they featured; they were a good example of what skinny fat means. Some people are genetically thin, and yet carry a dangerously high body fat percentage. When you look at a smaller persons weight and how they look in their clothes it’s kind of hard to believe that they could be considered obese on the body fat chart. I’ve know many a thin person with lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Sorry thin people, you have to exercise and eat right too. If you missed the Today Show segment, take a look below. Would love to hear your comments.
