Everybody with more than 10% body fat is considered fat which is not the case. There are plenty of studies showing a more normal weight is healthier than these starvation diets people are on.

Women are told to look like they just walked out of Auschwitz and are having all sorts of health problems resulting from starvation. Be very skeptical of anything you are told from science. Much of it has an agenda as does this.

Pray for America

I'm not referring to people with 10%-15-20% body fat or skinny people but obese people. The average American today is not at normal weight.

Anorexic girls? Sure they are out there..I never said they were not.

I just spoke with a Physical Therapist this morning at the gym. Been in the business for 25+ years. Years ago most of her work was workplace injuries or accidents. Today it's mostly hip/knee and back joint problems related directly to obesity.

I have no idea where you get your made up statistics from but the so called ‘gold standard’ BMI chart compares weight to height.

Your 10% number is some WAG.

I won’t bother reading your posts again
