I'm not living in denial dear. Yes, obviously body fat is fat, but I myself did not look fat at all, even in a swimsuit, I just had lost all my muscle from not working out for a year.

Yes, and muscle is replaced with fat. Ergo, you had become fatter. Not like super fat, I haven't seen you so I don't know, but when 35% of your body -- one-third -- is fat, that's pretty significant. Girls are naturally fatter than guys anyway, but I've never been above 15% body fat as a guy, so I can't really imagine.

If you have hypothyroidism, it can be completely corrected with synthetic hormones, like levothyroxine. If you have no thyroid at all, you can replace the hormones in a similar fashion -- they often remove the thyroid if you have hyperthyroidism or cancer of the thyroid, etc.

There's no excuse for being a huge fatty except being lazy. 'Nuff said.

As for the BMI, every professional athlete would be overweight practically on that scale. I'm not a big guy at all, I wish I was even more muscular, but I'm still borderline on the BMI, I'm almost at overweight on that scale, and I wish I was. It's a compliment to be overweight on the BMI if you're working out hard, I was stoked the first time I weighed myself and I reached that level. It's a silly scale, only works if you have NO muscle mass at all.

And to one of the last posters, 35% body fat is FAT, I'm sorry. You can live in denial all you want but that's fat, guy or girl. It's great you've gotten it down and replaced it with muscle.

Well, a girl's body needs a bit more fat, unfortunately, haha, part of that is because of boobs. For guys 12-18% is normal / healthy, for a girl it's 18-24%.

The real reason is for child bearing purposes...that is why ladies have those strange chunky child bearing hips.....guys usually have smaller hips which is kinda hot..
