i second the above post. i tihnk its retention but it also is that you may have lost muscle and less fat giving you the skinny fat appearance. eat more healthy foods, and weight lift. try the New rules of lifting for women |

thanks guys for your advice. lala - this is actually for a friend. As for me, im still on recovery, im now 43kg which is about 94lbs....i know still VERY low, but im trying really hard. The tummy still keeps growing, but i keep saying to myself that it will level off and that i must keep eating, the constant battle between ED and me. But hopefully with everyones support ill get there. fitnessgirl - thanks for ur advice, i will try andtake those on both and will update you all on whats happening. Thanks all. God Bless x |

thanks for the input. yes robynready i am 88 pounds. so basically if i eat right, and lift weights the tummy /lower abdomen will go away?? its really hard & frustrating to eat a lot more than before and also thinking that it will make my tummy fat. |

| Fitness | What would a skinny fat do? | Feb 09 2009 11:10 (UTC) |
|
i have the same issue! i think its just weight training that needs to be upped and protein intake! are you skinny fat from the tummy? and thin elsewhere like me? its because (i think) of low calories and either not exercising or exercising too much to burn it all off. anyone got any other thoughts? |

ok, basically i had a personal training session today and she took measurements and although im underweight, big time in terms of BMI i have a high body fat %. she told me to eat more!! i. e more protein and also do strength training and weights with cardio (not too much of cardio) what i wanted to know, is will this cause my lean muscle mass to increase and therefore decrease the body fat %?? |
