She is just skinny fat.
She has no muscle underneath. Its mostly all fat otherwise most women would stop ovulating when they reach 13% body fat.
I've seen so many skinny Korean girls gas out on the littlest physical effort possible. |

The obvious answer is she isn't healthy, and nobody cares. |

I just wanted to check other opinions- I was pretty shocked to see how little she weighed, but I showed my husband, and he didn't bat an eye (I don't think he was paying much attention, either, though!!). Hmmm- someone mentioned ovulation stops at about 13% body fat. I'm trying to figure out how much weight I should lose after having my baby and still be healthy. My husband is a big fan of rail-thin model types, so I figure I'll shoot for 52 kilos or so. 44 kilos is just not an option- don't want to end up like Karen Carpenter..... |

| I'm 5'10" and about 160 pounds. If I dip much below that I start looking like Lindsay Lohan. I don't know how women can get that thin. I think bone density and muscle mass may have something to do with it. I just can't get that small unless I decide to stop eating altogether. |

Most BMI scales doesn't take into account your muscle mass and bodyfat percentage.

I'm obese according to the above scale, but my bodyfat percentage is within the normal range (about 12-15 percent).

(Got on 46 on this one)
You need something that takes into consideration your bodyfat and activity level.
Check this.

Based on the above scale, I'm just a couple of pounds over my ideal body weight for someone of my activity level. |

I don't understand why she's so popular. Is anyone on this board into her (I'm probably asking on the wrong board...)? |
