Why do you call someone who is at the BMI of 22 ''skinny''? I am far from underweight. Why do you call me skinny as if I am underweight? My BMI is 22, I don't need to gain weight and have a bigger belly fat than I have now.
Why do call someone who is at the BMI of 22 ''skinny''?
I'm going to say this one last time because I do want to try and help.
Your BMI is frikkin irrelevent, you weight is frikkin irrelevant. When people say you are skinny they mean you have no muscles so your upper body looks the same width as your hips. In short, you look weak, girls don't like a man that looks weak, sorry that sucks but that's the way it is.
Go to the gym, lift heavy weights starting at 50kg at least, until you stop being called skinny. There is nothing more to say.
I can gain weight in fat and look bigger. You know it is very easy? When I gain fat and look bigger, I still dont have much muscle mass but will look bigger because of more fat mass on me and won't be called skinny but I don't wanna gain weight. I am walking not to gain weight because I don't wanna gain weight. Since I know I am not underweight, I don't see any need to gain weight in fat and look bigger.
So you see that being skinny is not about not having much mass mass? I won't have more muscle mass when I gain fat but I will look bigger, which I dont want to. So I am not skinny. I am just neither fat nor muscular. And having some belly fat doesn't make me fat either.
You are known as 'skinny fat' meaning your body fat % is high even though your bmi is normal. Girls like muscle so no muscle = skinny. That is just the way it is.
I can eat more food and stop walking everyday and can reach the BMI of 30 very easily. I will look much bigger but I won't have more muscle mass. As I said skinny is not about not having much muscle mass.
One more thing. An average man isn't a muscular man. It is quite normal to have belly fat at the BMI of 22. I am far from underweight. Overweight people have bigger belly faf and people who are not overweight have smaller belly faf than overweight people's belly fat.
Your hieght to weight ratio puts you in the lower end. Thats all it means
BMI does not factor in a lot of things. One being body fat percentage. Use your judgement, your BMI is 22 and you have belly fat. So reduce your belly fat and gain healthy weight and you should be fine
some girls and guys on this site. They called me skinny when I posted the photo with clothes on. I am far from underweight, they can't call me skinny as if I am underweight.
I don't look like I am underweight at all. I look at normal weight range. And people have lower BMI than 22 look skinnier than me but even if they look skinnier than me, they are still not skinny. Underweight people are skinny. Not me.
We'll you're probably taller than 5'5 which effects the way fat settles on you. Also you don't really seem to have any arm fat/muscle to bulk you up a bit. It could also be the clothing your wearing. --Hope this helps!
Yes, your right you do have belly fat. But you've also got arms like a twig! BMI is great but the taller you are the harder it is to see where your fat settles (why do you think models are tall?). Plus skinny doesn't really mean underweight.
In the picture with the baggy long sleeve shirt, yes. In the picture where your 'showcasing' your arms? Not as much by itself but in comparison with the rest of your arms it does look a little small.
no, bmi has nothing to do with how skinny you are. small framed people would look fat at 22 bmi whereas big framed people would look skinny. you should stop posting weight pics, it's getting annoying...
If you lack both fat and muscle together, you are skinny, which means underweight. I have enough fat on me not to be called skinny. I am not muscular but I am not skinny either because I have enough fat on me. If I had less fat, I would look smaller. I am not skinny.
Also 1 kilogram fat mass looks bigger than 1 kilogram muscle mass, since I don't have a low body fat percentage at the BMI of 22, I am supposed to look bigger.
Well, that's a personal question you need to be asking yourself for yourself. How do you feel happier? What lifestyle is funner for you? What helps you do better?
I forgot how sugar tastes, do you know about it? Is it for people to call me skinny? I am walking everyday not to gain weight and be careful of what I eat. Is it for people to call me skinny. Alright I stop walking everyday and start a lot of delicious foods with fat. Why did I bother losing weight, for people to call me skinny? I stopped drinking alcohol and the only reason is not to gain weight. scontent-frt3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/.../...48651919_n.jpg

'Skinny' isn't about BMI, it's describing how someone looks. People with the same BMI can have very different body types. You don't look especially skinny to me, you have kind of a slight build maybe. Personally I prefer skinny guys and know other girls who do too so I wouldn't take being called skinny as a bad thing necessarily
Do overweight or obese people look bigger because they have more muscle? It is the most bullshit thing I've ever heard. When I gain fat and look bigger, I will not have more muscle.
By the way I thought you said only skinny, not skinny fat. Skinny fat refers to people at normal body mass index already but when you say only skinny, it is underweight.
Because your body is proportioned differently like everyone else. People often have varying body types, some that hide fat better and others that don't. In your case you are the ladder
Nope skinny as in not muscular nor having body mass, people will look at you and say you look unhealthy too, I don't know why you are still trying to argue a moot point. Lose some weight and stop bitching.
You are calling me skinny and at the same time you are saying ''lose weight''? what the fuck? You dont know what you are saying. I can easily gain fat and look bigger but I don't want to. I am walking everyday not to gain weight. You see I don't wanna gain any fucking weight? I can eat more food and stop walking everyday and can look very big in a short time. Thats not what I want. I am walking everyday not to gain a damn kilogram.
So then fucking lose weight! You think walking is going to get you there fast? FUCK NO! HIIT it like there's no tomorrow. And i already answered you question? you are confusing as hell dude. I gave you advice to lose weight. I told you that you were skinny with clothes on and i am telling you that you are skinny fat! WTF is your question i have answered what it was and you keep arguing. What more do you want?
Lose weight for what? If I lost weight to burn belly fat, I would look skinnier. You dont know what the hell you are saying. I am not skinny. I am normal but when I lose weight, I will look thinner.
Do overweight people look bigger because they have muscle? I have less fat mass than overweight people and more fat mass than underweight people. I am normal. I am not underweigt, which means I am not skinny.
I dont look skinny. The BMI of 22 is not skinny body mass. I walk everyday actually not to gain weight and when I eat more food, I walk more to burn what I eat because I dont wanna gain weight. I am at normal body mass index range, I dont look skinny. As I said, underweight people are skinny.
You clearly do look skinny if everybody is telling you so. My BMI is 28, I'm not a big guy. Many might even call me skinny since most of my weight is muscleand only a small amount of fat especially after cutting it, and a pound of muscle is 4 times smaller than a pound of fat so to many I don't look like I'm the weight that I am, so to them I look skinny. Oh well. As for exercise, why not rather than walking, lift weights? Then you'd gain muscle and burn calories and not be as skinny.
Why call someone who is at the BMI of 22 ''skinny''? Am I supposed to overweight for you not to call me ''skinny''? I am at normal body mass index range.
But they are. Some people call me skinny, especially the bodybuilder guys I know, and I don't care. It's not a problem. If you're happy with your body and you think you're normal, it doesn't matter that they call you skinny. If you're not happy with it, change it. Either way, stop giving a shit about what other people think. You can keep asking these questions forever, and keep on repeating yourself, you'll never change people's minds.
Yeah everybody is body builders on this site. I dont have time for gym. I go to university by walking. It is my cardio. Sometimes I go to university by running. Once again, the BMI of 22 is not skinny, it is at normal weight range. It is just normal. Underweight people look much thinner than me, they are skinny.
I guess you dont see any person who is underweight in your life? You can't call somebody who is at normal weight range ''skinny'' just because you are a body builder.
No you can't call people who are at normal weight range ''skinny''. Underweight people are skinny. There is no underweight people in the usa really if it is where you live? Underweight people are skinny. This is what skinny is.
So if your definition of being underweight is not being overweight or muscular, then it is fine but I am not underweight so according to my definition of skinny, I am not skinny. For me, underweight people look small, their arms are very small for example, unlike my arms.
I don't look big. Neither do I look small if you ask me. Overweight people look big and underweight people look small to me. Anyway. I dont have a small arm, unlike underweight people's arms.
And I am saying obese people look big because they have more muscle than me? I have enough fat on me not to be skinny but I am not obese. I am just normal. Most of people who are at normal weight range have belly fat already but it doesn't make them obese. Obese people have more fat mass on their bodies, thats why they look big. Not because they have more muscle.
I think you are confusing two uses of the word skinny. Sometimes when people say skinny they mean underweight. Other times when people say skinny they mean lacking in muscle tone. People typically use the former for women and the latter for men. So I think they mean the latter, as I said.
Maybe I shouldn't have losted weight because I am unattractive as hell in both ways. But losing weight made me have more energy. For example I can run in long distances. I was not able to do it when I was fat. I would be deadly tired.
