Once again, confusion between weight & volume!

"Huge" apply to volume.

What is heavier: a litre of gold or ten litre of water ?
Which one take more place ?

Same happen for muscle / fat.

1. You can be heavy & big. (muscle+fat or just lot of fat)
2. You can be heavy & smaller. (muscle but no fat)
3. You can be light & big (fat but no muscle)
4. You can be light & smaller (less fat, still no muscle: only bones & skin)

Typical #4 is anorexic girl (an apple is 4 complete meals! May be I can
save the pips for some extra)
#3 is often sedentary people.
#2 is marathon runner and the like.
#1 is yo mama and Mick Tyson.
(no offence intended to either, I need my life)

You should measure your "health" with a ribbon meter, not a weighting
scale. It's the small/big part which influence most behaviour, not the
heavy/light.
