Question 1

why are my feet so fat?

Accepted Answer

Fat feet: There can be many answers.  Depends on your body type, you may just carry more subcutaneous fat tissue than others.  You may also have swelling of the feet which may make your feet seem larger than they are.  Also there could be some trauma that's causing the swelling.  If there is pain see a doctor!

Question 2

boy 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighing 133 pounds is that fat?

Accepted Answer

No: That weight and height would give you a bmi of 20.8 which is normal for an adult. What is your age? That can make a difference in the normal range for bmi.

Question 3

i am very thin..i am 24 years of age..my height is 6 feet 2 inch and my weight is 55 kgs..how do i get fat?

Accepted Answer

See Dr., then eat...: If one is truly underweight (based on height, family background, and body type), a Dr. can evaluate for a hormonal, digestive, or other disorder. If no medical cause is found, then one can add weight by eating more calories of nutritious foods, while also doing weight-training to increase muscle. Proteins: egg white, chicken breast, salmon, ...  Better fats: olive oil, peanuts, almonds, tofu, ....

Question 4

how to gain more fat?i m 6 feet tall and 70 kg weight buy still i look thin.so wht should i do to gain more weight?

Accepted Answer

Sounds healthy: Very few men your age want to gain body fat. Most women prefer a lean, defined man. According to the internet, mr. Dicaprio (photo) had exactly your height and weight during the time he was most popular. Most men would envy you. Your best move would be to start spending plenty of time in the gym -- both for your looks & overall health -- and watch your not only you body but your mind develop.

Question 5

i have a pouch if fat on my feet on the top. i want to know how i can lose this. it is not coming off with the weight im losing...?

Accepted Answer

Keep losing weight: If the pouch of fat is on top of both feet, it is benign and could be fat plus some fluid (water), specially if  you have weight problem. It should decrease in size gradually if you continue to lose weight. Sometimes it is soft tissue swelling due to joint disease and is not fat. A quick look by a physician can determine the nature of  this "pouch" and then suggest the treatment..

Question 7

my age is 16 years old and my height is 5 feet 1 inch and my weight is 55.45 kg i think i am fat because my weight is a lot comparing to my height?

Accepted Answer

: Best to assess is through BMI or body mass index where you input your values and get a sense of where you are, a normal BMI is roughly 20-25, there are many calculators online. Your pediatrician would be also a great resource to discuss goals going forward.

Question 8

what's a healthy body fat percentage for a mid 30 year old 5 foot 11" and weighs 150lbs?

Accepted Answer

You decide: "ideal weight" is subscience and entertainment at best, disinformation at worst. Your ideal weight is whatever looks and feels right to you and leaves you able to compete effectively with your peers at the sports you enjoy. The olympic track team is "underweight"; ultra-fit linebackers "obese". Hit the gym / playing field hard, eat sensibly & let your body find its own best weight.

Question 9

i am about 5 feet tall, 26 years old, weigh roughly 140 lbs, and just had my body fat measured at 44%. am i actually "obese?" this was devastating.

Accepted Answer

Not obese: Hi. Your BMI is 27.3, a little overweight but certainly not obese. Some of the body fat measuring tools can have a lot of error, so take 44% with some skepticism. Obesity is defined by BMI or waist circumference, and not by % body fat. Eat healthily and exercise regularly.

Question 10

i cut my the ball of my foot in a creek today. not much bleeding and not very deep can see what looks like fat though. how do i go about treating it?

Accepted Answer

Ya feel lucky? Do Ya: Well, if your cut is not bleeding much and is not very deep, then you are probably not seeing fat. This could be the best thing going for you. Clean it well with soap and water, apply a topical antibiotic and cover it with an appropriate bandage. Keep an eye on it for the next couple of days. If you see signs of redness with pain, you need to have it treated by a doctor.
