I'm not "chubby". I'm fat and/or obese. I hate when they try to give it a gentle spin.

Lex summed it up correctly - we're kind of "stuck with" what we were given in the survey, and there is that body type which was entirely ignored, but "chubby" is closest. I've seen many such surveys (on all topics) where an important choice is not available, and I'm sure this isn't the last survey I'll see that's like that.And I'm surprised there's not a "overweight/obese category" because I think there's a difference between that and chubby.
What? I thought ectomorph and endomorph were opposites - what I think of as "skinny" vs. "beefy or big-boned." I think of an endomorph as a "football player" type body and usually weighing at least 230 pounds - that is an endomorph who is in shape, but a lot of fat/obese people also fit into that category. Not sure how the two opposites go together, skipping entirely over mesomorph.Endo-ectomorph.
I guess that would be athletic.Where's swimmers build?![]()
Skinny during my 20s (ie, 'emaciated' by USA standards)
Slim through my 30s (ie, 'for god sake eat something', USA)
Average in my 40s (ie, 'skinny' in USA
Turning to fat now I'm in my 50s (aka, 'slim' by USA standards)![]()
