No, I am a fat person, but I’m not currently. For 7 years I’ve been at or at less than the weight I was when I was 14.

And don't forget about skinny fat people. Size is only one factor when it comes

That’s life. We are taking about being somewhat fit not a bodybuilder.

Agreed. Though, the question is how many people are in the "generally speaking" group vs the exceptions you list.

We all are what we decide to be.
