6'2 and 225 pounds does sound overweight unless you are in really good shape (like NFL safety type shape). Not obese though.

I'm 6'2 205 and I feel like I'm about 10 pounds overweight myself. 195 is optimal for me.

Skinny fat checking in.
5'10"

32" waist
I got some handles and stuff... i run a lot, but I like to eat and probably drink too much.

Yet since skinny fats don't think they are fat, they do not change their diet or eating habits or health habits and continue the self destructive behavior
that's a fricking retarded stereotype

- A healthy waist-to-height ratio is 0.5 or below. This measurement is more in line with your health and how you fit into your clothes.


This seems really high. A 6'2" person is overweight with a 37" waist.

Depends on your perspective

Acceptable vs "normal" vs optimal vs exceptional

Current "norms" are way out of sync with traditional norms...
