He didn't say fat, he said unhealthy. You don't look fat at all, but you do look like you could use a little sunlight and exercise.

It could be good for you, increase your energy levels, improve body functions and muscle tone, and improve mood. I say your boyfriend is encouraging to you to be healthier and it would be a great opportunity to say YES!

Gyms can be used in several different forms to be healthy. Lose/gain weight , get fitter or maybe more muscle. You are in no way fat, ask your boyfriend what he means and then discuss with him whether you want to try "More Healthy" approach.

CindyRuns · Accepted Answer

Nobody would call me fat or unhealthy and I'm a regular at the gym. I'd say the same for you.

Perhaps... he's doing his best to stay healthy, goes to the gym regularly and would simply like you to join him. I love having someone to talk to while I'm working out.

You may be skinny, but you can be skinny and still not healthy.

Some people can down a bag of cheetoes and not gain an ounce. Diet and exercise are important for overall physical health, not just size. It's also possible he's implying he wants you thicc...

Kori1236 · Answer

He didn’t say fat he said unhealthy. Gyms aren’t for losing fat they’re for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. It helps build muscle and makes you overall healthier. But gyms aren’t for everyone; I personally hate being in a gym I feel cooped up and bored out of my skull when I’m stuck in a gym, but take me on a hike let me climb trees and cross rivers and I’m all for it. I build muscle and I get to be active and not bored

NamerOfStars · Answer

I'm not a physician, but to my untrained eye, you look a lot closer to "dangerously skinny" than fat. Unless "The Gym" is a new restaurant, I think you're misunderstanding your boyfriend.

melanieeeB · Answer

Too skinny is also unhealthy and you do sadly look like you're underweight. I would recommend going to the doctor and getting that checked out and a professional doctor can give you advice on what to do

Berethor · Answer

You look anorexic, how you didn't break apart? your boyfriend must be very careful with you.

dustybiker · Answer

When it comes to your health, listen to your doctor. Not your boyfriend and certainly not anyone on GaG.

Anonymous · Answer

Sweetie, he doesn't want you to lose weight, he wants you to get fit. You aren't fat, but I can see just from the photo that you have the potential to go from just "not fat" to fit and tone, and that's a level of healthy that will make you feel amazing, not just about your appearance, yeah sure, but physically, as in energy and such.

G work out with him, you'll feel better, happier, healthier, after a couple of weeks.

LovingJo · Answer

If this is you, then you are not, you look beautiful, but my boyfriend is skinny and is not fit... He's always telling me that I am too powerful for him, in bed.. and I'm not exactly the fittest person!! 😂💯❤️

CrazyGirl2 · Answer

This is a great question, and there is nothing humiliating or personally embarrassing about it, so If you drop the anonymous BS, and ask this again with your username, I’d love to answer it!

TheorionMage · Answer

There's a difference between 'not fat' and 'toned'.  I'm not a 'buff' fanatic; but since the herniated discs  staying 'toned' is considerably more painful.

Levin · Answer

You look potentially rather underweight and your ribs stick out more than mine.

peacesncream · Answer

I think you are meant to be that size I can see your ribcage n your stomach is flat enough you look healthy

Faith18letsgo · Answer

Maybe he wants you to go to the gym so that you can realize how weak you are and start eating more food.

dragoblack · Answer

You're skinny, near anorexic. I think by gym, he meant gaining some muscle so your body doesn't eat itself for protein. It's good to understand body health and limits on skinny. Even just going out jogging would help with muscle building

MementoMori777 · Answer

I don't think he means un healthy as it fat, I think he means as too skinny

Drumlin2001 · Answer

Gyms not all about losing weight. The pic you posted you actually look rather thin. That can be just as unhealthy

Lionman95 · Answer

You´re not fat at all but maybe he thinks you´re too skinny and that would make you unhealthy, too.

Sour-rose · Answer

If that's what you call fat, your vision must be..."blurred".

lalaloveee · Answer

Your boyfriend probably feels like he's having sex with a rod. Gain some weight.

Confusedashell123 · Answer

You could probably do with some more muscle or “bulk” as it’s called. Maybe your boyfriend prefers that to the super skinny look. I’d go with him though

slatyb · Answer

You are quite slender. Not fat and fit are two different things.

TacosRAwesome · Answer

You're not fat at all, pretty much the opposite so he probably wants you to build some strength.

Mtbgirl · Answer

You don’t look fat but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t exercise.

Loony_girl · Answer

Just because your not fat dosent mean your healthy. Being tiny can be just as unhealthy

exitseven · Answer

You are not fat but your muscle tone is not great.

MissMidWest · Answer

Jamie05rhs · Answer

Yeah, you're definitely not fat. Maybe he just wants you to go with him because exercise is fun and it helps to build muscle strength.

Pohjolan · Answer

Well for starters you should get some steak.

Twalli · Answer

Unless you are sucking in your stomach, you're too skinny. You need to put on muscle or fat so we can't clearly see your ribcage.

Kelly6 · Answer

He is wrong in this. He’s idea only works on guys not girls.

soe11 · Answer

I think he wants showing your sexy body to public. I sure you look fantastic.

Surely · Answer

Light work outs never hurt anyone. Do as you see fit.

OddBeMe · Answer

1) he’s an ass 2) skinny or fat aren’t the big variables for health.

Anonymous · Answer

It's probably not for your weight, more likely for muscle tone..

Anonymous · Answer

you're not fat you're to skinny and going to the gym won't help. just eat more to gain some weight for your own health
