what is the difference in a few extra pounds and fat? i met someone from jsh last night and they told me that since my profile says a few extra pounds he thought i was gonna be fat...so tell me the difference please


the difference between fat and a few extra pounds depends on the person looking... has nothing to do with actual weight...

If person looking considers him/herself to be of average weight their perception is different from someone who considers themselves a few pounds over.

it doesn't seem there are set definitions distinguishing between average, a few extra pounds or otherwise....

for me i'm rarely 'happy' with my body shape but i'm not 'unhappy' either.....I just know i need to work out more or eat less.....and it never seems to end.....embarassed

BMI is not at all accurate when it comes to measuring body fat...if you strictly go by BMI than most of the cover models you see on magazines would be considered overweight...they go by what a person of 'slender' build should weigh. If you don't beleive me look up some of the fighters from UFC most of these guys are ripped...but BMI says they are overweight...muslce weighs more than fat...just fyi
thank you for that info..but i didnt say anything about body fat...thas a whole other issue...BMI is what health professionals go by to determine if you are "overweight" according to "national' standards....yes i already know that muscle weighs more than fat..but thanks anywayflowerforyou

5 pounds under or over is what I think of for average

10-20 pounds over weight or less would be "a few extra ponds"

and 20+ is obeise...or heavyset

my thoughts
20 pounds over is obese? Yikes.

Why are people so obsessed with body type? What difference does it make? I want to date a person, not a body.

Way too much emphasis put on peoples weight for aesthetic reasons. Health should be number one reason to stay fit.

its all the same to me.

but the ones who say 'a few extra pounds' to describe themselves are only doing so cause 'fat' sounds worse

all about talking yourself up, man

well the average size is a 14, im a size 12, so i class myself as average. i would say a sixe 16 to 18 would be a few extra pounds. but sometimes its hard to say, as someone who is a 12 may look bigger than a person who is a size 16, especially if there taller, and how they carry there weight.
