    I was in a pub once where a couple of British guys almost got in a fight because one of them called the other "fit".

    - 'oo are you calling fit?!

    I don't know. I've never been called skinny.

    I don't see it as an insult and I guess it really doesn't have a negative or positive connotation to me, to me it is just a descriptive word and it depends more on how the person was saying it and if it was meant to be an insult, compliment, concern. etc..

    When describing my ideal weight and shape (ideal because I would still like to lose 10-15 more lbs) I would prefer to hear the words: fit, in shape, tone, lean, athletic etc... Looking at these words it also is very apparent that my goals are to be more fit and toned than just weight loss alone!

    It's just a word, it doesn't make me feel anything.
